My officials have been in contact with the NCSE and have been advised that an application for Special Needs Assistant support was received on 13 October 2008. The application was incomplete and further documentation was requested from the school authorities, which was subsequently received on 12 December 2008. I am informed that the local Special Educational Needs Organiser has been in contact with the school authorities in relation to the application.

A decision will issue directly to the school authorities once the process has been completed.
