In advance of the meeting, I propose that the committee write to the Department of Jobs, Enterprise and Innovation, which is the parent Department for this legislation, and ask it to explain its perspective of what the legislation it asked the Oireachtas to pass means, in light of what has been said at this meeting. The Department should take some steps to ensure that the legislation is applied consistently. We need a detailed note from the Department on why various Government bodies are interpreting it differently.

We will move on to the next page. I do not know how much is left. This page covers Institute of Technology, Tralee, and Maynooth University. Somewhere along the line, we will invite a number of third level institutions to attend. They are large institutions.
