Joint Oireachtas Committee on Education and Skills
General Scheme of the Higher Education Authority Bill 2021: Discussion
Jim O'Callaghan (Dublin Bay South, Fianna Fail) | Oireachtas source
I thank the witnesses for coming in this afternoon. I want to raise an issue, which I do not believe has been raised, which is the content of the general scheme of the Bill that deals with students. Our guests will be aware that it is dealt with in Part 4, with three specific sections dealing with students that provide for engagement with students, the student form and the student survey. Do the guests believe the content of the Bill is sufficient to protect and represent the interests of students or are there other changes they would like to see in the Bill to advance that?
