Parents of children at Carrigaline Community Special School have contacted me in relation to the patronage of their school being an inhibitor to their children with a mild to severe intellectual disability having access to local children's disability network team, CDNT, service providers. They are being told that they are ineligible for home support and respite, for example. As the Taoiseach will be aware, a new special school has also been now been designated for Carrigtwohill in east Cork. This is obviously most welcome but will the children due to attend that school this September face the same discrimination?
