============================================================

Darragh O'Brien (FF), Dublin Fingal

I thank the Deputy for raising the case of Calum Geary himself, who is an example of many others in this position. Our own party and this Government have always prioritised special education, making sure that children who need assistance and help from the State to reach their potential will get it. We need to make sure that is done for Calum specifically. As for the Irish Sign Language Act, the provisions within it and when it is being rolled out and effected, I will take that matter up directly with the Minister for Education. If I can give the Deputy any assistance as he continues to advocate for Calum and his family, I certainly will.
