(a) the applicant institutes specified in the order shall stand dissolved (in this section referred to as the “applicant institutes”), and
(b) there shall stand established a technological university (in this section referred to as a “technological university”) to be known by the name specified in the order, in both the English and Irish languages, to perform the functions conferred on a technological university by or under this Act.
