Dáil Éireann Debate, Wednesday - 10 February 2021
722. Deputy Sean Sherlock asked the Minister for Health the waiting times for all children for speech and language therapy by community healthcare organisation area, in tabular form; and the length of time each age group is waiting. [6417/21]
View answerThe Programme for Government, Our Shared Future, recognises the need to improve services for both children and adults with disabilities through better implementation and by working together across Government in a better way.
The Government commits to prioritising early diagnosis and access to services for children and ensuring that the most effective interventions are provided for each child, to guarantee the best outcomes.
As this is a service matter I have asked the Health Service Executive to respond to the deputy directly, as soon as possible.
