The agreed policy direction of Government is to move from whta is often referred to as the two pot model to the one pot model. For example, in Limerick we have the Technological University of the Shannon and the University of Limerick. It cannot be right in one city to have students attending two universities where one university is getting more than the other. In terms of sustainable funding, it will be moving from the two pot to the one pot model.
