Before Mr. Hanlon takes that question, as a public representative engaging with parents and schools for a long number of years, I would have to say that the new system since 2017 is more frustrating for parents and for schools. There is not a battle, but a discomfort between the SENO and the boards of management or the school management because they perceive that there is not enough provision. Is it time to look at how the Department changed that process in 2017 and to go back to it because there was, in my opinion, a better service delivery prior to that?
