As reflected in the Programme for Government, it is our policy intention to develop, insofar as possible, the specific services raised by the Deputy in the context of reforming our health and personal social services. However, this intention has to take account of all relevant factors such as evolving service priorities and resource availability overall. The position in relation to this year is subject to agreed changes to the HSE Service Plan 2012, and that relating to 2013 will be subject to the normal Budgetary process.
