I will certainly convey that suggestion to the Minister. She wants this to happen as well and is very supportive of it, as am I. I have visited the WIT on a couple of occasions and was very impressed with the work that is done there. I have not yet had a chance to visit Carlow IT, but I intend to do so shortly. The idea is that it would increase the offering to the area. It must be about quality as well. However, there is a great desire to make this happen. I will convey the Senator's request to the Minister that she organise a briefing for Members of the Oireachtas. I am sure that can be arranged when the time is right. It would be the wise thing to do, so I will try to make that happen.
