Dáil Éireann Debate, Wednesday - 20 May 2020
396. Deputy Cormac Devlin asked the Minister for Education and Skills the date for the release of the health professions admission test, HPAT, results for 2020; and if he will make a statement on the matter. [6924/20]
Amharc ar fhreagraThe HPAT is independently administered by the Australian Council for Educational Research (ACER) on behalf of the universities’ medical schools and the RCSI. The selection criteria and process for admission to medical schools is a matter for those institutions in line with their statutory autonomy in relation to academic affairs. Neither I nor my Department has a function in the administration of the HPAT, including the issuing of results.
