I propose to take Questions Nos. 93 and 94 together.

Two Ministers of State were appointed at my Department, Mary Mitchell O'Connor T.D. as Minister of State with responsibility for Higher Education and John Halligan T.D. as Minister of State with responsibility for Training, Skills, Innovation and Research and Development.

There are two Delegation of Functions Orders in place. These Orders were made on 18 July 2017 and are available at website.
