I move amendment No. 197:

In page 102, lines 13 and 14, to delete “the Qualifications and Quality Assurance Authority of Ireland” and substitute the following: “a relevant designated awarding body within the meaning of the Qualifications and Quality Assurance (Education and Training) Act 2012”.

The amendments relate to technical changes. They capture NCAD's quality assurance relationship as a link provider of UCD and the relevant arrangements put in place under the Qualifications and Quality Assurance (Education and Training) Act 2012 to cover such a relationship. This change will ensure that NCAD reflects directions given by UCD in relation to quality assurance when preparing its strategic development plan.
