The advisory committee on the education of the deaf and hard of hearing was established with the following terms of reference:- to review the adequacy of the current range of educational support services available to students who are deaf or hard of hearing; to identify; and prioritise areas of service provision which require development or adjustment, and to bring forward such proposals as are considered appropriate to ensure the development and delivery of an appropriate, effective and efficient education support service for students who are deaf or hard of hearing. The committee has not yet concluded its deliberations but the group is aware that I am anxious to have its report at the earliest possible date.
