Joan Burton (Dublin West, Labour)

The Dáil has not debated the McCarthy report since it was published some months ago. The report recommended that a number of third level educational institutions should be amalgamated. For example, it proposed that a number of institutes of technology in the Dublin area should be merged with Dublin Institute of Technology. The Grangegorman Development Agency was established by the Government with the aim of developing a new headquarters for Dublin Institute of Technology.
