Micheál Martin (FF), Cork South-Central

I thank the Deputy for raising this issue. I, too, pay tribute to Cara for what she is doing to raise awareness in respect of autism. I am very conscious of the situation of her two brothers, John and Neil. I have visited Scoil Chormaic Special School on a number of occasions but I do not think I have been to Ardfinnan National School recently. I salute all those involved in that area. As I have said in this House previously, I am a strong believer in greater provision within the school context in terms of putting in place multidisciplinary teams, which should happen in the first instance within special schools. I will be doing some further work with the respective Ministers in this regard.
