Question:170 Mr. J. Brady asked the Minister for Health and Children the number of children in County Meath with autism in the age groups four to ten and ten to 18. [15979/99]
Written Answers. - Autism Statistics.
The information requested by the Deputy is not readily available within my Department. While the national intellectual disability database contains information on persons with an intellectual disability, including those with autism, it does not record individual diagnoses. I have asked the North-Eastern Health Board to provide the information requested and I will contact the Deputy directly as soon as this is received.
