Joint Oireachtas Committee on Further and Higher Education, Research, Innovation and Science
Student Accommodation: Discussion
2:00 am
Mr. Paul Lemass:
It is more a case of proceeding beyond the preliminary business case, where an institution demonstrates the case for accommodation, and determining the type of development it will be, for example, leased units from a private developer, off-campus or on-campus, or refurbished vacant property. Which of those routes is taken will inform the subsequent steps. There may be a large role for the higher education institution itself or it may be a smaller role.
