It is. I have checked it. It relates to the commitment in the programme for Government to people with special needs. The HSE is only providing St. Francis special school with general nursing hours on a three-day-a-week basis. Many of the school's students suffer with serious physical conditions that require full-time medical assistance, but general nursing hours are provided only on Mondays, Wednesdays and Fridays. It is leading to deep stress among parents who are fearful for their children's welfare in the event of a medical emergency.
