Minister for Education and Skills

In May 2016 agreement was reached with the TUI in the context of the Lansdowne Road Agreement and under the auspices of the WRC that a review of lecturing would would be carried out.

Officials in my Department are in ongoing discussions with the parties to the agreement with a view to agreeing a format for the review as soon as possible.
