I thank Mr. Harris. For the purposes of the committee, it is important to characterise the requirement for special educational units within new schools to be extended substantially. A huge number of schools are being substantially extended and they are not currently subject to that provision. I believe they should be. I have come across it a few times in my constituency, which is one of the fastest growing in the country, beside Dublin West. I certainly take on board Mr Harris's point, however. Do Ms Hart or Dr. Muldoon have any remarks on my comments?
