I propose to take Questions Nos. 189 and 199 together.
The Review Group on Health and Personal Social Services for people with Physical and Sensory Disabilities in its report, Towards and Independent Future, which was published last December, set out the requirements for the development of services. On foot of the report, an additional £3.688 million was provided this year. There is a commitment in Partnership 2000 to the development of services to persons with disabilities in line with the report, within general expenditure parameters.
The further development of the services will be considered in the light of the resources which may be made available to my Department in 1998.
