The Department was not previously aware of the matter referred to by the Deputy. The details supplied by the Deputy are currently being considered with a view to establishing an appropriate response.
Without pre-empting the outcome of that consideration, I should advise the Deputy that the Department takes very seriously any concerns raised relating to specific allegations of impropriety and/or misconduct by a higher education institution.
