-----Waterford IT, other institutes of technology and the Department. We have acknowledged that there is an issue in this area. There was a deep dive done but there has not been an outcome, which is unacceptable. It is unfair to leave so many people in Waterford IT hanging. They deserved a product at the end of the process.
The Comptroller and Auditor General was doing his report, which was only a small element of the overall picture in terms of research and development in Waterford IT. By the way, it is a first class institute of technology.
