Dáil Éireann Debate, Wednesday - 30 June 2021
175. Deputy Mark Ward asked the Minister for Further and Higher Education, Research, Innovation and Science when indoor community education services can reopen; and the number of persons that will be able to attend. [28203/21]
View answerFurther and higher education institutions and providers, including community education funded by the Education and Training Boards, are enabling provision during the summer period which includes the resumption of research activity. This is to be managed in line with the discretionary framework to do so and the prevailing public health advice. This will provide an experiential basis for institutions and providers in organising and managing the safe return of students and learners on-site in the autumn through initially modest and manageable levels of provision.
