Covid-19 (Special Educational Needs Provision): Statements
Dail Éireann — 2021-01-21
============================================================

Norma Foley (FF), Kerry

I asked for ten seconds to reply. I do not have sufficient time to reply in full because the clock will not allow me, but I want to make one point. The Deputy quite correctly asserted that I have encouraged people to pick sides and that I have picked sides. I make no apology. I picked the side and will continue to pick the side of children with additional needs. They are my first priority. The Deputy made an assertion and I have clarified the matter.
