Kathleen Lynch (Cork North Central, Labour)

When will the provisions of the Education for Persons with Special Educational Needs (EPSEN) Act, which was suspended in the most recent budget, be reactivated? When will the mental capacity Bill - the title of which, I hope, will be changed to the legal capacity Bill - be introduced? When will the review that is taking place in respect of personal alarms for the elderly be completed, when will it be published and when will the Government act on it? The one item of security the elderly had at their disposal were these personal alarms and the Government has taken them away. When will the review be completed?
