Vol. 397 No. 7
99 Mr. Noonan (Limerick East) asked the Minister for Education if her attention has been drawn to the fact that the Limerick College of Art and Design at present operates at four district locations; if her attention has further been drawn to the inadequate accommodation at these locations; the plans, if any, she has to provide proper accommodation for both students and staff on a single site in Limerick; and if she will make a statement on the matter.
98 Mr. Noonan (Limerick East) asked the Minister for Education if her attention has been drawn to the inadequate accommodation at the various COACT colleges in Limerick; if she will outline her plans to remedy the problem; and if she will make a statement on the matter.
97 Mr. Noonan (Limerick East) asked the Minister for Education the proposals, if any, she has received from Limerick City Vocational Education Committee (a) to solve the accommodation problem at COACT colleges in Limerick, (b) to relocate the School of Professional Studies to the same campus as the School of Engineering at Moylish and (c) to accommodate the College of Art and Design at one location.
104 Mr. Noonan (Limerick East) asked the Minister for Education the plans, if any, she has to locate all department of COACT, other than the College of Art and Design, on the present campus of the School of Engineering at Moylish in Limerick; the financial allocation she intends making in 1990 to further this plan; and if she will make a statement on the matter.
I propose to take Questions Nos. 97, 98, 99 and 104 together.
I am aware of the accommodation difficulties being experienced at the COACT Colleges in Limerick. Discussions on these difficulties have already taken place between my Department and the college authorities with a view to solving the college's problems. As the discussions are ongoing I am not in a position to be more specific at this stage.
