PQ 194
194. Deputy Darren O'Rourke asked the Minister for Education and Youth if she will amend Circular 0010/2013 to allow for funding to be deposited into a school's account in order for it to purchase assistive technology equipment for eligible students, rather than the current scheme which puts pressure on smaller schools as they must purchase the equipment first and then be reimbursed, which creates situations where certain schools do not have the budget to purchase this equipment first and children are left without this necessary equipment.
