Would the Minister have a concern that there might be difficulty accessing and engaging with the tertiary education sector, particularly for the smaller SMEs that are set up around the table? It might be a little bit daunting for people almost going back to college for the first time but specifically in relation to their business. Does he see that there is an issue there? I hope those barriers will get broken down over time. Is there a specific action or any one particular college or university that is doing particularly well at it where it could be piloted?
