I commend the Department on special education but there are specifics within that that need to be addressed. On the education theme, the publication is very important and we will come back to it again.

We will have conclude because the interpreters have to be in the Dáil at 2 p.m. and need their lunch. I thank the officials for coming before us today and I thank the previous witnesses who were before us. It was a very productive briefing and of great importance to the work we are doing. I also thank our sign language interpreters who have done a fantastic job today. Their work and the help and assistance they have given the deaf community is very much appreciated.
