In October 2020, I had a productive meeting with Minister Dodds, who has responsibility for further and higher education policy in Northern Ireland. We discussed areas of common interest, including on-going collaboration between further and higher education institutions and research and innovation.
I plan to meet again with Minister Dodds in the new year.
