Second, there is an issue in my constituency where schools in Lucan are finding it difficult to recruit somebody to perform the psychological assessments. Has there been any progress in that regard or is there a continuing issue with finding suitably qualified people for posts? Delays in assessments are causing particular problems for students who are transitioning from primary to second level. Is anything being done to ensure necessary resources are in place to address that issue?

Chairman: Second, there was an issue in my own local area in Lucan there was a problem with recruiting of somebody to do the psychological assessments.
