Really delighted to have had the opportunity to speak in Leinster House yesterday in front of the Joint Committee on Further and Higher Education, Research, Innovation and Science as Chairperson of the National Local Training Initiative Committee.

It was a big moment personally, but more importantly a chance to represent the work happening in LTIs across the country.

We received really positive feedback and strong support from all TDs and Senators present, which was great to see.

Appreciate all the support behind the scenes β€” onwards from here.
