Thomas Pringle (Donegal South West, Independent)

On the preschool year of early education for children, there was previously provision in the regulations for children with special needs to avail of a second year of preschool education. Has the Minister any plans to continue with that provision? I know it has been discontinued from September 2011 but will she overturn that decision and allow children with special needs to avail of a second year of early education?
