151 Deputy Brendan Howlin asked the Tánaiste and Minister for Education and Skills if her attention has been drawn to the fact that when a primary school pupil with a resource hours allocation transfers to a new school, the resource hours are lost and not reinstated until the case has been reviewed by the special education needs organiser in the new school district, which may entail some considerable delay; her views on whether this creates serious disadvantage for the pupil; if she will amend the procedure in order to provide that the resource hours simply transfer automatically with the child from one school to another, with a later review by the SENO in the new school district; and if she will make a statement on the matter.
