Deputy Seán Fleming:

It is okay once it is not being translated from German into Irish. Anyway, we will move on.

The HEA is well placed. Will Mr. Boland send the committee a spreadsheet of this type of information? We had four third level institutions, universities and institutes of technology, at the previous meeting. I would like to get a pen picture, which I am sure Mr. Boland has, of the budget for each of the third level colleges, the number of students - specifying whether undergraduate or postgraduate - the number of staff - specifying whether teaching, research and other staff - and the student-teacher ratio and employment outcomes. The HEA should be able to provide such information. If it is available I would like to hear about the outcome from the €1.2 billion investment and whether it results in good employment and career prospects. I suspect that is what the HEA should do. Will Mr. Boland send something-----
