I am happy to explore that idea with Deputy Wynne and to have a meeting with the relevant stakeholders. The proposal needs to come through various education and training boards, universities and others. I see huge potential when it comes to renewable energy and offshore wind. Often, we talk about climate in terms of all the challenges it poses, which it does - it is the biggest crisis the world is facing - but there is also huge opportunity in new education, new jobs and the green economy. Geographically, west Clare is well placed for that. I am happy to further explore this with the Deputy and take any meeting on the matter.
