At our meeting last week, and it is also in our committee report on Covid-19, it was recommended that emotional and therapeutic supports should be provided in schools. The Ombudsman for Children made a recommendation to the joint committee on 4 May and specified that this should be rolled out in primary schools and we spoke about this being rolled out on a pilot basis. Can Mr. Arneill and Ms Brady give the committee their views on this issue?
