Okay. Maybe this one is not appropriate for the witnesses either. There are stories we have heard lately about children with additional needs being secluded and restrained in schools, which is obviously very hard on the pupil, the parents, the staff and the other children in the school. In the witnesses' opinion, what changes are required to eliminate these practices and to enshrine the child's right to inclusive, safe and welcome education?
