One of the drawbacks of the Committee of Public Accounts is that we are specifically precluded from going into those policy decisions. Ultimately, it comes down to which of the Cassells options is adopted. I understand Dr. Love's 12 days will not be sufficient to answer this question, but he may have an opinion nonetheless. On the viability of some of these facilities in the long term without significant Exchequer funding injections, is Dr. Love satisfied that the implementable recommendations of the existing report and-or whatever future funding model is determined would head off the issues that are being suffered in those institutions? Is there a particular university or institute of technology that is really struggling and might require financial injections in the medium term?
