Yes, imagine that. There is no need for the Minister to be cynical about it. I know about this because I lectured very successfully in the University of Dublin in the past. While 18 hours might not sound like a lot, one must bear in mind the research one must do, as well as the preparation of lectures. The 18 hours only refers to actual lecturing in lecture halls. On top of that work, there is the preparation and correction of examination papers, tutorials and so forth.
I know this is just part of the rough and tumble of debate and the Minister just mumbles something, so we will put that to one side.
