I have a close personal connection to a special school and can testify to the enormous problems the parents suffer, not only dealing with the various physical/mental difficulties their children suffer but with the ever increasing pressure put upon them in the workplace. Any reasonable help offered to such people is much needed/deserved and this decision is long overdue.
