Minister for Education and Science (Ms Hanafin)

I understand that a submission has been prepared by Trinity College for a course leading to a certificate in Contemporary Living and has been forwarded to the Higher Education Authority which is the funding authority for universities.

My Department is awaiting the results of the HEA's consideration of the submission.

Questions Nos. 271 and 272 answered with Question No. 258.
