I thank Mr. Carroll very much for that clarification. Could I assume that workers who want and who need various educational and training opportunities will avail of Athlone Institute of Technology? Will the Athlone Institute of Technology specifically be marshalled in that regard along with the various educational institutions in the region? Are any steps being taken to harness it to assist people? If that is the case, there would need to be very real financial support and logistical support for people to avail of that. I am just interested to know whether the institute is being marshalled in that regard. There is a very fine institute there with very high calibre graduates. I am from that catchment area, and I have a son who is a student there. It is a wonderful institution. Is there a partnership or collaboration with the institute to assist the just transition?
