Leo Varadkar (Dublin West, Fine Gael) | Oireachtas source

I am a little bit disappointed in the Deputy's question. People in the south east fought for a very long time to secure a university for the region. We now have the South East Technological University. It is an addition to the region and certainly when I went to visit and spoke to businesses and ordinary people in the region about it, they accepted that it is a plus and a good thing. I am disappointed.
