Vol. 537 No. 5

Written Answers. - Educational Projects.

Jim O'Keeffe

Ceist:

105 Mr. J. O'Keeffe asked the Minister for Education and Science when the deliberative process will be completed in relation to the implementation of the Government's decision (No. S29740) taken on 8 April 1997 to establish the west Cork third level campus in Skibbereen; the reason no action has taken place in the past four years to implement that Government decision; and if he will make a statement on the matter. [16975/01]

I am having the proposal concerning Skibbereen examined in the context of plans currently being developed to strengthen the education base in regions that are not well served at present and to establish effective links with higher and third level institutions. Pending finalisation of these plans, I am not in a position to indicate a timescale for proceeding with the Skibbereen proposal.
