My question is in respect of the proposal to grant technological university status to Athlone Institute of Technology, AIT, and Limerick Institute of Technology, LIT. Will the Minister outline his objectives and plans in that regard? I ask the Minister to look favourably on an application to establish a new technological university comprising these two institutes of higher education which incorporate the satellite campuses of Thurles and Clonmel in my constituency of Tipperary. I further ask him to confirm his intention to implement these plans.
