I ask the Minister of State to ensure in fairness to the children concerned that the position which has prevailed for the past five or six years, and which will be accentuated in the next year or two, will not be allowed to continue. Thousands of children are in school in cold conditions and are hungry, but the Government pays no heed to addressing their needs. The Minister of State is a responsible person and she has a responsibility to change the position. This must be done.
