I wish to ask the Taoiseach about an announcement made by his Minister of State with responsibility for people with disabilities. When Deputy Finian McGrath went down to Kerry, he announced €30 million extra in funding for services for people, specifically children, with disabilities.

Does this relate to the programme for Government?

Yes. However, across the road from St. Mary of the Angels, which he visited, is a school for severely handicapped children, St. Francis Special School. Is the Taoiseach aware that there has been no physiotherapist there for 50 children-----

Deputy, seriously, I do not want to-----

-----since last September? This is in the programme for Government - children with disabilities.

I doubt physiotherapists in Kerry are specifically referred to in the programme for Government, in fairness.

In fairness, that is what the Minister of State announced below in Kerry, that there was €30 million extra for these services. At the same time, there has been no physiotherapist in the school across the yard from last September to date. That is not fair on those children and parents.

This is more of a Topical Issue matter, but there is a process for the appointment of physiotherapists and qualified personnel to look after children's needs in this regard, and I am sure that is being followed.
