Norma Foley (Kerry, Fianna Fail) | Oireachtas source

Again, to confirm to the Deputy, the process of refining the DEIS identification model has been a consequence of and is reliant on the engagement of a variety of stakeholders, as I have already outlined, including school management, national parent representative bodies, unions and so on, particularly with regard to the technical aspects of the refinement. In advance of completion and implementation of the DEIS identification model there will be further engagement with relevant stakeholders. As I have outlined to Deputy Ó Laoghaire, there will be an opportunity, as we near the end of the process, to engage with Opposition spokespersons also.
