The one-year plan would address a shortfall in student places for the 2023/24 academic year resulting from the budgetary crisis north of the border.
Stormont health authorities have welcomed an Irish government plan to fund 250 student nursing and midwifery places in Northern Ireland universities.
Commenting on the proposal, a spokeswoman for Stormont’s Department of Health said: “The Department of Health welcomes this planned one-year arrangement which will help maintain the current training infrastructure for pre-registration nurse training, ahead of an intended future increase in NI-funded places in the event of additional funding being available.
“This planned one-year funding arrangement will be an important practical step in fostering future collaboration across the island of Ireland in the important area of healthcare training which will be to the mutual benefit of our healthcare systems.” “As part of this work the Department of Health has come to an agreement with the Department of Health in Northern Ireland that will result in 200 nursing places this year for students from the Republic.
