Michael Moynihan (Cork North-West, Fianna Fail)

I congratulate Carrabane National School on being one of the first outside of the city to open a special class. Going back over the years, all school communities that put up their hand, so to speak, and took on special classes have really fostered very inclusive education on their campus. I congratulate Carrabane on what they are doing and their continued good work on it. The commitment I would give the Senator, and I know it is an issue very close to his heart as he has spoken to me about it and raised it here earlier this week and today, is that I will follow up on it to ensure there is no delay. We have to go through due process in evaluating the tender documentation in the Department. Nobody will thank us for it if we do not do that right, but we will do it in a meaningful way and we will report back to the Senator. I thank him again for his interest and we will continue to work on it.
