The issue of community education providers was raised by persons who provide that service. They believe it is important that they are part of the definition in this respect. In many communities there is not only FÁS or the VEC but also local groups which have been established to provide education for Travellers or other groups. They believe it is important that they are included in the list of providers. Does the Minister of State have anything to say about this?
