Mr. Diarmuid Collins:

There are students in private student accommodation. We have approximately 1,500 bed spaces at this stage. They are adjacent to the campus and are within a walk of five to ten minutes. They are not specifically on the campus itself but they are very close to it. We manage 1,478 beds. We are developing the Crow’s Nest site, which will add an extra 450 beds in the coming years.
