Question:532. Deputy Mattie McGrath asked the Minister for Education and Skills the way a child (details supplied) in County Tipperary, who has been classified as having a severe to profound learning disability, can be refused access to the July education school-based programme, because the child is not classified as being on the autism disorder spectrum; the reason other severe and profound learning disabilities are not considered for the school-based programme; if a school can offer the programme to children who have a severe to profound learning disability; and if she will make a statement on the matter.
