Dáil Éireann Debate, Thursday - 12 June 2025
360. Deputy Brendan Smith asked the Minister for Education and Youth if the system of approving supports for children with additional needs will be amended to ensure more timely provision of such supports (details supplied); and if she will make a statement on the matter. [31648/25]
Amharc ar fhreagraThe National Council for Special Education (NCSE) has responsibility for coordinating and advising on the education provision for children with special educational needs including the allocation of SNAs.
The NCSE is, in the first instance, the primary body responsible for the matter the Deputy has raised. I have forwarded this issue to them for their attention and direct reply.
Deputies are also welcome to raise such queries with the NCSE directly through their dedicated Oireachtas query line at oireachtasqueries@ncse.ie.
