I have received information from the organisation referred to by the Deputy and I have outlined to it the work of the Department in areas of relevance, such as addiction, substance use, stress and behaviour. I have also given details of contact points for further information.
I understand that the organisation in question is delivering and developing courses to deal with the issues outlined above. It is open to the organisation to seek to have its programmes validated by the Higher Education and Training Awards Council (HETAC) or the Further Education and Training Awards Council (FETAC).
