Finian McGrath (Dublin North Central, Independent)

I seek the adjournment of the Dáil under Standing Order 32 to discuss an issue of national importance and concern, namely, the €9 million cut to special education and particularly the effect this will have on pupils of St. Brendan's national school in Artane, Scoil Caitríona in Coolock and St. Eithne's school in Edenmore. I call on the Minister to end this cut as a matter of urgency. I call on all Members of the Oireachtas to support the campaign against cuts in special education and to support the pupils, families and teachers.
