Question:127 Ms Enright asked the Minister for Education and Science the position on the consultants report into St. Catherine's College of Education for Home Economics, Sion Hill; and if he will make a statement on the matter. [10363/03]
I propose to take Questions Nos. 125 to 127, inclusive, together.
The consultancy study report on the future of St. Catherine's college of Education for Home Economics is currently under active consideration in my Department. When the process is completed I will be happy to meet with the Irish Federation of University Teachers to discuss the way forward.
On the issue of the employment status of staff in St. Catherine's college, I understand that there are currently some 25 full-time staff employed in the college, seven of whom are on temporary contracts. In addition to the full-time staff, I understand that there are 12 staff members employed by the college on a part-time basis.
