Written answers

The assessment of need process consists of two stages, the first stage is a review of the referral to the assessment of need process by an assessment officer which is an administrative exercise. The child is then referred to stage 2, if appropriate, which is for clinical assessment.

Due to the recent cyber-attack the latest information available from the HSE is that one application was due to commence stage 2 of the Assessment of Need process and 18 applications were overdue for completion at 31st March 2021.
