I have an initial 30 seconds for the Western Development Commission again. I am returning to the issue of upscaling. What sort of engagement does it have with the education and training boards, ETBs, across the region in determining what skills shortages there are and how they can be addressed? What potential job creation opportunities are available across our rural regions? How can the ETBs become deeply involved in maximising that potential?
