Joint Oireachtas Committee on Education and Social Protection
Down's Syndrome Education Equality: Discussion
2:15 pm
Ms Gina Grant:
The national secretary of Down Syndrome Ireland and I met him in Glenties to discuss various issues arising in Ireland, including the lack of research and the way in which children face discrimination from birth. Everything is being estimated and we are unable to get accurate data. We are relying on Professor Buckley's research, which is fantastic and has helped my son, but we need to conduct research here.
