Mr. Jimmy Quinn:

The other thing we are here for is to highlight the unjust situation whereby 600 Irish children have had to leave the country to receive a veterinary education. That is a massive disruption to those children, their families and friends and their social and sporting lives. We would like to see that resolved so they can find a place to receive that education in their own country and not have to travel significant distances at significant cost to themselves and their families. We would like to see that resolved. Up to this point in time, those students have not had any voice. No one has been here to fight their corner or point out that they are out there in large numbers. That was a major motivation in bringing us to this campaign.
