Nicole Ryan (Sinn Fein)

I am not asking for the Minister to get involved in the day-to-day decisions. In my constituency, Ballyhoura Development CLG, touches only as far as Charleville. IRD Duhallow will touch the rest. What I am talking about are the small FET centres that are not getting this kind of funding and have to cut their services in rural parts, not the huge ones. They cannot compete with the huge ones such as Cork ETB in the city. Small ones like Millstreet, potentially, Macroom and others in small rural towns provide an amazing service for the people there. In rural Ireland there is a lot of isolation. They are not getting the funding they are supposed to be getting. I know this is not part of the Minister of State's brief, but his script has not answered my question. This is not what I asked. It just gives me a load of things that have been done. Again, I am talking about the small FET centres; I am not talking about huge organisations.
