To finish, although I might come back in on this, when the Ombudsman for Children has stated there is an unacceptable level of stress, particularly for children with special needs, and when there is a figure of more than €320 million having been spent last year on the provision of temporary and modular accommodation, that speaks volumes about the failure of the Department and the Minister to forward-plan and put in place appropriate education for our children.
