Mr. Richard Taylor:

Ms Ní Chonghaile has eloquently summarised what we do and a lot of the positivity. Everything we do, we do because you cannot get it anywhere else. There is a very long waiting list, which I am sure the committee will hear about throughout the rest of the session.

To summarise, inclusivity was mentioned at the start of the meeting and Ireland as being an inclusive society. It is very grounded in our mission, and our belief is that if we want to be truly an inclusive society, in particular regarding autistic people, we need acceptance. We can foster that through education, which should be grounded in neuroscience and best practice that provides and leads to the best possible outcomes. We are a small organisation in the west but the feedback we get from our members is that we are helping to make a difference. We encourage engagement with any State body that wants to share and learn from what we are doing on a small scale to see how it could be replicated in other parts of the country. We would welcome those engagements.
