Mr. Martin McLoughlin:

We actually find the opposite. We work very well with many school patrons and we find that patrons are very supportive of our and the NCSE's efforts to get schools to open special classes. If the example the Cathaoirleach mentioned is the one I am thinking of, the NCSE was due to meet the school involved to try to get agreement.
