Special Report No. 78 of the Comptroller and Auditor General: Matters Arising out of Education Audits (Resumed)
1:20 pm
Dr. RuaidhrĂ Neavyn:
Yes, the Deputy is correct, but it must be remembered there are a significant number of assets involved which provide excellent services to the students. The services provided by DCS, Diverse Campus Services Limited, have been of great benefit to the institute and the student body. This was recognised in the Quigley report. We want to do our level best to secure these in the most appropriate way and to ensure the consolidation process is fully in line with all legal and governance requirements. Accordingly, there will be a cost associated with that.
