My question was more about the 244 places available at third level annually for speech and language therapy, occupational therapy and clinical psychology. They are being provided to support children with additional educational needs but that it is not enough. It might well be a demand issue but the Department has an important role to play in increasing the number of places available so that we have professionals coming out the other end to provide ongoing support children in school, especially at primary level, to access education.
