Joint Oireachtas Committee on Education and Youth
Recruitment and Retention of Special Needs Assistants: Discussion
2:00 am
Cathal Crowe (Clare, Fianna Fail)
That would be really appreciated. Before we conclude, many SNAs tuned in from home. I can see emails have been coming in from all members' constituencies. They have been coming in to all of us. There was a lot of content we did not get near today. There are parents watching. There are advocacy groups for autism and Down Syndrome Ireland who have been emailing in. We are very sorry we did not get to all this. There is a body of work to be done beyond today that we as a committee need to look at scheduling more time for in the future.
Our next meeting will be on Thursday, 2 October. We will begin that day in private session and then go into public session. As always, a massive thank you to the secretariat and the technical team, who have been here throughout the meeting, allowing it to happen. We very much appreciate it.
