It was interesting in recent weeks that the Minister of State with responsibility for disability said there was going to be much more engagement with students at second level in respect of what they want to do after they finish second level and that there is not going to be this assumption that they just go in to a day service. This is welcome, is way past time and needs to happen so that more options are offered. The work and what we have heard about today is exemplary, needs to be expanded and is to be applauded.
