I propose to take Questions Nos. 466 and 469 together.
I wish to advise the Deputy that the National Council for Special Education (NCSE) is responsible for approving special classes/units. In that regard, I understand that the school in question has consulted with the NCSE and it is currently reviewing special needs provision in schools in the area concerned.
Should the NCSE approve additional special needs provision in the school referred to by the Deputy, it would be open to the school to submit an application for additional accommodation should this be required.
