I know the other witnesses will agree with what Mr. Harris has said, but to add to that point, do they feel that SENOs should be more of a postgraduate and highly qualified role than it is at present? This would lead to a huge issue in recruitment and getting qualified people as that is a big issue right across the system. Do the witnesses feel SENOs should be more qualified than they are to undertake the role? I am aware the role may have changed over recent years but what are the views of the witnesses in this regard?
