Joint Oireachtas Committee on Disability Matters

An Inclusive Education for an Inclusive Society: Discussion

Ms Helen Walsh:

I thank the Deputy for the question. We have brought difficulties that we saw with building and the pressures the Department itself is experiencing. We are seeing problems with delivery, modular units and reconfiguration. There is pressure with resources but in reality the Department is working with us to get solutions on this. We are meeting the Department. We have done it regularly with regional teams over the last couple of months. We will meet again in March to iron out any remaining issues that relate to building and expectation of delivery in that space. All hands are on deck with regard to any building queries and SENOs are working with the Department to try to relay concerns from principals to it.
