I join members in wishing Mr. Stack well. He is very well qualified and experienced. He chaired the planning group within the Department which produced the report on a national support service for special education for students with disabilities in 2000 which led, inter alia, to the establishment of the council. While I do not expect Mr. Stack to have an answer right now, as a public representative a number of school boards of management, teachers and parents have raised with me the perception that there may not be a consistent allocation of resources among schools. Whether that is correct or not is another issue, but I flag it with Mr. Stack.
