Paul McAuliffe (FF), Dublin North-West

As our party's spokesperson on social protection, I am proud of the roll-out of the hot school meals programme and in particular the roll-out to DEIS areas. As the Tánaiste will know, until September, special schools were not included in the hot school meals programme. While expressions of interest were extended in September for 111 special schools, we have yet to see a full roll-out. I ask the Tánaiste to ensure the Minister for Social Protection does everything we can in 2024 to ensure all specials schools have access to the hot school meals programme.
