Chris Andrews (SF), Dublin Bay South

In light of the closure of the process under section 37A of the Education Act for autism spectrum disorder, ASD, classes in south Dublin, without any classes having been set up in the areas of Dublin 4, 6 or 6W as a result of this process, and considering the enormous impact this is having on families from Ringsend up to Harold's Cross and Terenure, I believe there is an urgent need for a specific section 37A process for these areas of Dublin city. Will the Tánaiste ensure that such a specific 37A process will be set up for the areas of Dublin 4, 6 and 6W as a matter of urgency?
