I expect there will be an outcome in the coming weeks. I am aware of the application by Mayo College of Further Education and Training to the FET College of the Future major projects fund. There are two parts to the assessment process for such applications. The first part has now been completed by the SOLAS-led evaluation team and its report has been submitted to the Department of the Minister, Deputy Harris, for consideration. It is expected that the evaluation report, with recommendations, will be submitted to the Minister, Deputy Harris, in the coming weeks, following which the education and training boards that submitted applications under the process will be advised of the outcomes of the first stage of the two-stage evaluation process.
