Amharc ar fhreagraIt is envisaged that SOLAS will have strategic responsibility for all further education and training currently delivered by VECs and FÁS. Over time, FÁS Training Centre premises and most FÁS regional staff will be integrated with the VECs, to facilitate the delivery to the public in an integrated way of both further education and training services. No decisions have been made in relation to centres where both second level and further education provision are being delivered.
