Advice paper on establishment of Solas

The National Disability Authority is the independent statutory advisory body on disability policy and practice, and on universal design.

The National Disability Authority welcomes the Government decision to establish a new further education and training agency, Solas, which will have the strategic responsibility for further education currently delivered by Vocational Education Committees (VECs) and training currently delivered by FÁS. This provides the opportunity to link the continuum of education and training.
