Ms Freda Manweiler:

The frameworks for accreditation are different in the Republic of Ireland and Northern Ireland and Britain. The mapping is different. It would be easier to accredit the training programme we run if the frameworks were similar. We might not attract as many people to participate if the accreditation were to come from a Dublin based accreditation body. This is an issue, which also affects funding because certain funding will go to accrediting things under a Northern Ireland framework and certain funding will go for accreditation in the South. That is an issue.
