The HSE has been forced to act on providing therapists in schools after the Irish Examiner  revealed a row between Disability Minister Anne Rabbitte and senior officials.

However, as of last night just one of the 15 promised specialists had been put in place, with the HSE confirming that Carrigaline special school will be given one therapist.
