Joint Oireachtas Committee on Education and Skills: General Scheme of the Higher Education Authority Bill 2021: Discussion (Resumed) (13 Jul 2021)

Rose Conway-Walsh: I thank the Acting Chair and I thank Ms Donegan, Ms Dolan and Ms Austick for their submissions. My first question is for the USI. Ms Austic stated that the USI is gravely concerned about the inclusion of the value-for-money criterion and the risk it poses in the context of pushing us further down the road of the marketisation and commercialisation of third level education. I very much...

Joint Oireachtas Committee on Education and Skills: General Scheme of the Higher Education Authority Bill 2021: Discussion (Resumed) (13 Jul 2021)

Rose Conway-Walsh: That is enormously important. I think we are losing that, in particular we are losing the ability to be able to critically analyse things, which is what is needed for the workforce. It is also what is needed on one's journey through education and in life. I have a couple of questions so I will move on. In the 180 pages of the Bill there is no reference to trade unions. At a time when...

Joint Oireachtas Committee on Education and Skills: General Scheme of the Higher Education Authority Bill 2021: Discussion (Resumed) (13 Jul 2021)

Joint Oireachtas Committee on Education and Skills: General Scheme of the Higher Education Authority Bill 2021: Discussion (Resumed) (13 Jul 2021)

Rose Conway-Walsh: I wish to raise some concerns with Ms Dolan. Forgive me for being parochial, but is she really saying that the Mayo campus would not have representation on the governing body? Could she address that point again? Would it also mean that Letterkenny and Sligo would not have representation?

Joint Oireachtas Committee on Education and Skills: General Scheme of the Higher Education Authority Bill 2021: Discussion (Resumed) (13 Jul 2021)

Rose Conway-Walsh: I agree with Ms Dolan. It would be astonishing for that to happen. Trojan collaborative work was done by the Connacht-Ulster Alliance in getting to this stage, so I would be shocked to hear that the Mayo campus would not have a voice. It would be repugnant and contravene what had been accepted to this point. To start backtracking at this early stage would ring alarm bells. This is...

I get what Mr. McCallister says in terms of attitudinal changes being more important than institutional...

Ceisteanna Eile - Other Questions: Apprenticeship Programmes (8 Jul 2021)

Rose Conway-Walsh: What are the targets for September in terms of what will be done over the summer? This week I was contacted by a young man from Mayo working as an apprentice plumber. He has not been able to access the phase 4 training in his apprenticeship. This means he will possibly be stuck on apprenticeship wages longer than the four years it should take. No other cohort of students are treated in...
