Text

I thank the Minister. It is good to hear that some of the SEP programmes in mainstream schools are still being progressed. However, progress is slow. I know that he will agree with me that many of those schools become very disheartened. They have extremely challenging accommodation needs. I am keen to for him to explore what additional resources the EA needs to progress cases. For example, Carrick Primary School in Lurgan has waited for almost 10 years for that business case. I am keen to know what more we can do to progress the issue.
