Special Educational Needs
Dail Éireann — 2025-02-25
============================================================

Claire Kerrane (SF), Roscommon-Galway

Before asking this question, I wish the Minister of State well in her new role because I did not have an opportunity to do so earlier. This question is to ask the Minister of State about the number of children on waiting lists for assessments of needs, the average waiting time for the children on the waiting lists and, more importantly, I suppose, the measures she intends to take to tackle these very long and record-level waiting lists.
