Question:

426 Mr. Crowe asked the Minister for Health and Children the number of individuals living at home who require full-time residential services; the number who require and are waiting for a day service; and the number who are currently awaiting hospital services. [7264/03]

Minister of State at the Department of Health and Children (Mr. Callely)

The information requested by the Deputy is not routinely collected by my Department. My Department has contacted the health boards to establish if such information is available to the boards. My Department will be in touch with the Deputy when the information is to hand.
