Vol. 523 No. 5

Written Answers. - Outreach Services.

John V. Farrelly

Question:

155 Mr. Farrelly asked the Minister for Education and Science the plans he has in relation to future outreach education centres; and if he will make a statement on the matter. [21408/00]

The need for outreach centres will be considered in the light of my plans to strengthen the education base in regions which are not well served at present and to establish effective links with higher and further education institutions.

I have had top level discussions with representatives of the Church, local authorities and elected representatives in Wexford and Kilkenny, as well as senior staff from the Institute of Technology, Carlow and NUI, Maynooth, in relation to plans being developed in these areas.
