Alan M. Dukes
Question:385 Mr. Dukes asked the Minister for Education and Science if he will provide funding for the employment of a classroom assistant at Kildangan national school, County Kildare, in order that a child who suffers from Down's Syndrome can obtain a proper education in view of the fact that the person in question has been working with the child for the past two years and the school has tried without success to employ a replacement classroom assistant under the community employment scheme.
