I have a final question for Ms Ní Chéileachair.

In the committee's module on school bullying, one of our recommendations was on the provision of emotional counsellors and therapists in each primary and secondary school. This area is crying out for help. Principals and teachers do not have the expertise to provide emotional counselling and the like for younger students. What are Ms Ní Chéileachair's views on our recommendation?
