Dáil Éireann Debate, Thursday - 30 September 2004
124 Mr. Crawford asked the Minister for Education and Science if a full time classroom assistant will be provided for a person (details supplied) in County Monaghan; and if she will make a statement on the matter. [23006/04]
View answerI am aware of an application for special needs assistant, SNA, support of the pupil in question. My officials are examining the application as a matter of urgency and a response will issue to the school authority shortly. I am also aware that there is an SNA already in the classroom where the pupil is being taught and who can supervise the pupil at playtimes until the application is fully processed.
