Dáil Éireann Debate, Thursday - 25 February 2021
249. Deputy Peadar Tóibín asked the Minister for Health the number of persons with a disability nationally seeking HSE-funded residential placements in each of the past five years to date; and the average cost per placement in each of the past five years to date. [10612/21]
View answerThe Government is committed to providing services and supports for people with disabilities which will empower them to live independent lives, provide greater independence in accessing the services they choose, and enhance their ability to tailor the supports required to meet their needs and plan their lives.
As this is a service matter, I have asked the Health Service Executive to respond to the Deputy directly, as soon as possible.
