I propose to take Questions Nos. 355 to 357, inclusive, together.

My Department's primary source of statistics is the HEA's Student Records System (SRS) which records enrolments of students, rather than planned places. First year enrolment data for undergraduate occupational therapy, physiotherapy and speech and language therapy courses is available in the table below. The data is for the 2020/21 academic year, the latest available.

Institution Course Enrolments
NUI Galway Occupational Therapy 29
Trinity College Dublin Occupational Therapy 42
University College Cork Occupational Therapy 26
Royal College of Surgeons Physiotherapy 20
Trinity College Dublin Physiotherapy 40
University College Dublin Physiotherapy 52
University of Limerick Physiotherapy 27
