Professor MacLachlan said there were structural changes within the system that needed to be made, and that it was not a tweak but an overhaul that was needed. Have those structural changes been identified? Has there been any progress towards having that streamlined process so that, when our children need X,Y or Z, they can go to a section and say “This is my prescription for assistive technology”? Is that a possibility or is it going to happen?
