I am advised that the prices in the students' restaurant in University College, Cork, for the academic year 1980-81 have been increased on average by between 25 per cent and 33? per cent. The increases were sanctioned by the college authorities to reduce the large deficit on catering operations in the college and to bring prices into line with restaurant prices in the other higher education colleges.
