That is not the fault of Tusla but it is a missed opportunity. The expansion of that scheme was discussed here last week. If we are to attract people from the Traveller community, they might not be able to afford the accommodation or to travel. There was talk about other technological universities such as Limerick. One of our colleagues also mentioned Galway. The spreading out of it to ensure we could get a more diverse inclusion in the apprenticeship scheme was mentioned.
