The Education Minister has announced a major reorganisation of higher education - including the setting up of three new Technological Universities.

It follows recommendations made by the Higher Education Authority - which is calling for consolidation of the I.T. sector.

Dublin Institute of Technology, the Institute of Technology Tallaght and the Institute of Technology, Blanchardstown will come together to become a Technological University.
