Government rejects claim it is 'kicking can down the road' after SNA U-turn
Hildegarde Naughton: 'There’s no point in Government proceeding with something where our schools and our teachers and parents in particular are worried about the process, worried whether their children won’t have the support that they need.' File picture
The Government has rejected accusations it is “kicking the can down the road” on SNA allocations by a year.
Education minister Hildegarde Naughton has defended the Government’s U-turn on SNA allocations, with confirmation on Monday night that €19m would be provided to allow for extra allocations without cutting back in other schools.
