Question 544: To ask the Minister for Education and Science if his attention has been drawn to the fact that Waterford has been without the services of a special education needs organiser for some months and that people are having difficulty accessing the service due to the phone messaging service being full; the action he will take to ensure that another SENO is appointed; and if he will make a statement on the matter.

The appointment and assignment of Special Educational Needs Organisers is a matter for the National Council for Special Education (NCSE). I have arranged for this issue to be brought to the attention of relevant officials in the NCSE and have requested that they respond to the Deputy directly in relation to his concerns.
