Question:
To ask the Minister of Health, pursuant to AQW 29230/22-27, whether he will publish the review of the population health needs of children attending special educational needs schools.

Answer:

I expect the PHA report to be finalised and provided to me shortly. The report is expected to be largely of a clinical nature for consideration and analysis by health and education.

Once I receive the report, I will consider the recommendations it contains as a priority and at that point a decision will be made on whether it would be appropriate to disseminate the report or associated recommendations more widely.
