The National Council for Special Education (NCSE) is, in the first instance, the primary body responsible for the matter the Deputy has raised.

As the matter raised relates to a NCSE process. I will arrange for your query to be forwarded to the NCSE for their attention and direct reply.

Deputies are also welcome to raise such matters with the NCSE directly through their dedicated Oireachtas query line at oireachtasqueries@ncse.ie
