Micheál Martin (Cork South-Central, Fianna Fail) | Oireachtas source

I am not familiar with the background to this but I presume this has been considered for quite some time. It cannot have come as a bolt of out the blue. I will talk to the Minister for Education and alert her that the Deputy has raised this issue in the House today. I am not clear on the rationale as to why it is moving from Donegal town to Letterkenny because education centres are very important in terms of training, service training and a whole range of other development programmes. I will ask the Minister for Education to engage with those who have made this particular decision.
