Vol. 490 No. 2

Written Answers - Third Level Funding.

Seán Haughey

Question:

307 Mr. Haughey asked the Minister for Education and Science if he will provide care funding to the Mater Dei Institute of Education, Dublin 3, commencing in the academic year 1998-99; and if he will make a statement on the matter. [10057/98]

I have not yet received a formal application in this regard from the Mater Dei Institute of Education. At their request, I met representatives of the institute in December 1997 and indicated to them that I would be prepared to have such an application examined in the context of the 1999 Estimates. The matter has since been the subject of ongoing discussions with my Department and I understand that the institute intends formally to submit an application for funding to my Department shortly.
