401. To ask the Minister for Agriculture, Food and the Marine when fees for students attending agricultural colleges will be reduced to a level similar to fees for students attending colleges of further education as there is a significant differential at present; and if he will make a statement on the matter.

The setting of fees for Teagasc education and advisory services is an operational matter for Teagasc and its governing board, the Teagasc Authority.

Any proposal from Teagasc to my Department to adjust fees for Teagasc Further Education Programmes will be considered on its merits and having regard to developments in the wider education sector.
