Pauline Tully

Ceist:

234. Deputy Pauline Tully asked the Minister for Education and Skills the number of Irish-born enrollees on the 2017-18 undergraduate full-time honours degree doctor training courses by institution; the number of other EU and non-EU enrollees, respectively, on the same course by institution; if there is a reserved number of places for non-Irish enrollees on the courses in each of the third level education campuses involved; and if he will make a statement on the matter.

The Higher Education Authority collects data on student enrolment in higher education institutions (HEIs). Data on medical education enrolment for the academic year 2017/18 is attached.

A quota applies to the intake of EU students to medical education. Thereafter, the number of places allocated to non-EU students is a matter for the individual HEI concerned with the availability of clinical placements being an important factor in this regard.
