I disagree with the witness on that point - approved by the HEA. It is a box-ticking exercise. What is the HEA doing? Why is it the licensing authority and funder? This is what it is there for. It protects my interests as one of the people contributing €37 million to this institution, and I have a problem with that €37 million being given over by the HEA saying it looked at the institute's examination of itself and was delighted with what it saw.
