The National Council for Special Education (NCSE) is an independent statutory body which has been established in accordance with the provisions of the Education for Persons with Special Educational Needs Act 2004.

Special Educational Needs Organisers (SENOs) are recruited and employed directly by the NCSE. As this question relates to the timeframe for the recruitment process for a special educational needs organiser, this question has been referred to the NCSE for their consideration and direct reply to the Deputy.
