I thank the Minister, Deputy Harris, and the Minister of State, Deputy Collins, and their officials for appearing virtually before the committee. As a result of Covid, there is a strict two-hour time limit, for which I apologise. I thank the Minister for accommodating us. I know he is under pressure with the Cabinet and so on. More importantly, I thank members for their forbearance in terms of the meeting being delayed until 4.20 p.m. We had a very good discussion which has followed on from our discussion last week with the Technological Higher Education Association. It was very informative and beneficial for members and the public. The meeting stands adjourned until 1 p.m. on Tuesday, 2 March 2021, at which stage we will virtually meet the Minister for Education, Deputy Foley, and the Minister of State, Deputy Madigan, in public session.
