Mr. Seán Ó Foghlú:

If we do not find a solution to this, everything will potentially suffer, whether it is the proportion of the population going into higher education or the depth and breadth of their experience in higher education. We need a way to address this issue. I do not want to get into a series of hypotheticals but we need a way to address this issue. We have a societal conundrum and we need a way to have a collective dialogue about how to address it.
