As for the supports that were provided, we listened to Inclusion Ireland earlier and it seems parents had very different experiences of the level of support provided to their children - from provision in some schools being excellent to provision in others being minimal. Can Mr. Tattan talk about the overall background to this and the level of engagement with the Department and the different schools? Were we to go into a second lockdown, what is Mr. Tattan's forecasting? Could we be assured of a more consistent approach from education providers to children, especially those with additional needs?
