It is important to note that the institute did not have the facility to borrow.
Without wishing to be too parochial, I have a question regarding St. Angela's College in Sligo. It is the only school of home economics in the country and is now part of the institute of technology campus along with the school of nursing. There is an issue there whereby a capital project was approved in 2011 but was subsequently shelved. I am aware that many other projects have since been approved. There is a health and safety aspect involved here in that there is no access for wheelchair users from one facility to the next. What is the status of that project, with particular reference to the accessibility issue?
