Third Level Education: Statements (Resumed).
4:00 pm
Maurice Hayes (Independent)
I am grateful to colleagues for allowing me to contribute. I also believe that at some stage we will need to revisit the issue of fees and funding. However, I wish to deal with the medical proposals. It is a pity that the very sensible proposal in the Fottrell report that people who have completed a primary degree should move on to medicine is immediately negated by regarding them as postgraduate degrees for which they must pay.
