Cecilia Keaveney (Fianna Fail)

It is very much part of the solution and must be dealt with. The implementation of the EPSEN Act was very much part of what she spoke about that day.

In that context, I congratulate the Cork Institute of Technology. Some of the money it is getting for research will go towards examining music as a therapy and teaching music as a subject as well as what other people would call the more important issues such as researching MRSA and technologies. Will the Leader indicate if it is possible, in the context of a substantial amount of money being allocated to institutes of technology throughout the country, including Letterkenny, to get an update from the Minister on the way that money is channelled and how it links in to the Department of Enterprise, Trade and Employment and the needs of the businesses as well as the graduates on the research side? There is a great deal of work going on at third level and the co-ordination of all that is worthy of debate.
