Mr. Peadar Ó Scanaill:

I thank the Deputy. I agree with him completely; the provision of the education is something we are looking at. In fairness, there are many more now going abroad than are going to our own college when we look at the numbers. Perhaps it is time that we had a second college. That is definitely the case. We are extraordinarily proud of the veterinary service that is in every parish. However, any employer of vets will tell us that when they advertise for a vet to perform those sort of duties, it is very hard to get them.
