On disability, developmental disability and delays in opening autism units in schools, a new autism unit was meant to be opened for students in Scoil Íde, Kilmore, this September, but this has been delayed, causing great stress among the pupils and families, who are left without any school places. The lack of planning and lack of delivery on promises made are completely unacceptable and put the students and their families under additional stress that they really do not need. Why are autism units that have been promised not being delivered on time? Why are pupils with autism being left without school places as a result?
