Mr. John Curtis:

The apprenticeship situation is changing. Things have improved in the past couple of years. Considerable work is going on through further education and training, FET, and the Minister for Further and Higher Education, Research, Innovation and Science. We even have people doing work at local level in our schools. It is changing, but it can be slow. As Dr. Gormley was speaking, I was thinking the exact same thing. It has to do with cultural perceptions. Sometimes they can be slow to break down, but it has genuinely improved in the past five years.
