Joint Oireachtas Committee on Education and Skills
Future Expansion of the Technological Universities: Discussion
Paul Kehoe (Wexford, Fine Gael) | Oireachtas source
I really encourage the Minister to continue his work with the hotel and catering sector. Some of the top hotels around the world have at their helm Irish people who trained here in Ireland. There are huge opportunities here for people to go abroad, broaden their views and come back to Ireland with that experience. People may differ from me on this even within the hospitality sector but a majority agree with me that there is huge scope here, especially in areas like hotel management, catering, hospitality, cheffing and everything like that. I hope what the Minister offered to the Irish Hotels Federation is only the start of a large suite of packages he and his Department can provide over the next few years.
Senator Byrne and Deputy Ó Cathasaigh want to come in. I will take both their questions together.
