South County Dublin is a built-up area and heavily concentrated in population terms. There are proportionally as many children there who need additional support as there are anywhere else. As a result, I urge Ms Griffin and the Department to do everything they can in this regard. We still have difficulty with the Red Door school and so on, but I will leave that for the moment and go back to the overall issues.

On July provision, I ask Mr. Tattan to confirm a couple of things. I would like simple "Yes" or "No" answers. This is a voluntary scheme - correct?
