I know there is a move to make mild general learning disability schools more catch-all schools to have a broader admissions policy. I am a bit concerned about that and I raised it in the Dáil. I did not get the Minister's answer last time. I am still concerned about that. There is merit in ensuring we can provide for every child in the school. I think this country is rich enough to have schools that cater for people and those experts working with children should be given that opportunity.
