I propose to take Questions Nos. 580 and 597 together.

As Minister for Further and Higher Education, Research, Innovation and Science I launched the latest round of a call for applications under the Technological University Development Fund. This was noted by Government 30/05/2025. This latest call for applications for up to €65.8 million under the Technological University Development Fund builds on significant investment in landscape reform and development through targeted funding schemes since 2017. and now also includes Specialist Colleges subject to assessment and approval of applications.

Regarding your request for tabular details on this investment, my officials have been requested those details from the HEA and these will be supplied directly as soon as they are received by my officials.

I trust that this is acceptable to you.
