I propose to take Questions Nos. 456, 457, 463, 464, 466, 477, 514 and 537 together.
My capacity to allocate additional remedial teacher posts in any given year is dependent on resource availability and the level of competing demand from other special needs areas. I have to determine priorities and allocate available resources to best effect.
