I am standing to support the Labour motion, and to say that it is very welcome that Labour took the initiative to do this. We talk in Ireland about being an inclusive society. The role of the SNAs is to support inclusion. I have seen it first-hand in schools in Tramore and through the needs of my own children. It is crucial that the SNAs get the security that is required to ensure that they can carry out their function to the best of their capability. Moreover, I stand here for those children who deserve their rights and need the support of SNAs. I fully support this motion of the Labour party, and I hope it will be taken on board here today.
