By way of a supplementary question, I further inquire as to the extent to which the Department is in a position to identify the likely requirements of the future, having regard to the requirements of the marketplace at the present time and the movement in that area over the past couple of years. I also ask the Minister of State to give an indication to the House the extent to which he can put in place the necessary upskilling facilities to ensure that both the manufacturing and service sector needs are adequately met as time goes by. I ask whether or not it has been possible to identify possible sensitive areas that might need to be looked at further.
