I welcome the new speech and therapy pilot programme for schools and preschools. Will the Minister for Education and Skills tell me the schools that will participate in the new programme? Will he also tell me the number of speech and language therapists under the new programme and the way in which the programme will support children to fulfil their potential? Not a day goes by in my constituency office without parents coming in looking for help for their children, for speech and language and occupational therapies, etc. I welcome this new pilot scheme.
