The Minister for Education and Science would like to assure the Senator that he is fully aware of the importance of the school of music to Cork city and to the musical and cultural life of Cork and the whole Munster region. I agree with the Senator that this is an important flagship project and he has brought our attention to the fact that the practical implementation of these public private partnerships is of immense importance. I will bring to the attention of the Minister the importance of finalising this matter.
