Written answers

Minister of State at the Department of Health

The HSE provides a range of assisted living services including Personal Assistant and Home Support Services to support individuals to maximise their capacity to live full and independent lives.

As this is a service matter, I have asked the Health Service Executive to respond to the deputy directly, as soon as possible.
