I move amendment No. 21:

In page 17, line 17, after “the” where it secondly occurs to insert “promotion of cross border”.

This amendment relates to the cross-border student enrolment. We need a very clear role for the HEA in promoting cross-border enrolment. We have spoken about this several times. I acknowledge the work of the Minister and his departmental officials in trying to get agreement that student enrolment across the island and opening up student opportunities across the island are vital. That is why we want to see it explicitly in the Bill.
