Education (Provision in Respect of Children with Special Educational Needs) Bill 2022: Second Stage
Seanad Éireann — 2022-07-11
============================================================

Josepha Madigan (FG), Dublin Rathdown

Senator Keogan is in the Chair. I thank her for mentioning that issue. It is important. I believe I have addressed Senator Mullen's queries. To respond to Senator O'Loughlin, I will have a look at the case of Kildare Town Community School and revert to her. Senator Pauline O'Reilly mentioned the SNA contract. This is again something we are looking at. To respond to Senator Sherlock, the issue of diagnosis is a big one. I am liaising with the Minister of State, Deputy Rabbitte, in that regard. I know she has reduced assessment times. The therapeutic supports are really important. I am working with the Minister of State on that.
