asked the Minister for Education when he proposes to announce the names of his nominees to the board of the new College of Art.
Ceisteanna—Questions. Oral Answers. - College of Art.
34.
I propose to announce these names immediately I have been given the names of those elected to represent the students on the board.
I wonder whether the Minister would agree that the length of the delay in setting up the new governing body has resulted in a sense of frustration and difficulty in giving the college a fresh launch and would he agree that it is desirable that the new board commence functioning at the earliest date possible?
I would agree that I am frustrated by the fact that it has not been possible yet to set up the new board. I would be only too pleased to set them up as quickly as possible.
Is the Minister expecting results of the election in the near future?
I am expecting results in relation to the elections held by the night students and I understand that the day students are considering the matter and that some of them are going ahead with an election. I would hope that they would all be involved.
