Question:

804. Deputy Pádraig Mac Lochlainn asked the Minister for Health if his attention has been drawn to the fact that organisations (details supplied) have only received a fraction of the budget they require from the HSE over recent years to provide vital disability support services to families across County Donegal; and the actions that will follow after the meeting between the managers of the organisations and the Minister of State with responsibility for disability on 11 November 2020.

Written answers

Minister of State at the Department of Health

Minister Rabbitte was pleased to meet with representatives from the Bluestack Special Needs Foundation, iCare and the HSE recently. Minister Rabbitte would like to thank all who attended and recognises the important work of these organisations.

As the Deputy's question deals with services funded by the HSE, I have arranged for the question to be referred to the Health Service Executive (HSE) for direct reply to the Deputy.
