Joint Oireachtas Committee on Further and Higher Education, Research, Innovation and Science

Student Accommodation: Discussion

2:00 am

Mr. Paul Lemass:

The technological sector, in particular, is building up its skills. The established traditional universities generally have building departments and, in some cases, very well resourced and very competent building departments that can handle multimillion euro projects on their own and are doing it. The TU sector is a newer sector. It is building up its capacity. It is currently in the process of recruiting a senior management team. It, therefore, needs that level of support. The HEA works closely with all of the TUs in developing any of their projects.
