I just cannot align that with some of the Minister Further and Higher Education, Research, Innovation and Science's announcements particularly relating to the technological universities, with resource to expand, develop and fulfil the vision that is there.

Would that be the way to go to keep the promise of investing in the technological universities rather than forcing them down the other route?
