Lack of university a real ‘roadblock’
Universal agreement has been reached among chambers of commerce in the south-east to collaborate on seeking university status for Waterford Institute of Technology and they hope to meet, as a group, with TDs to press their case.
A meeting of the nine chambers from across the region took place on Wednesday night and heard that half a million people have identified the designation of a technological university as a key priority for economic recovery of the region.
