Written answers

Minister for Children, Equality, Disability, Integration and Youth

My colleague, Minister of State Anne Rabbitte T.D., co-launched the new National Housing Strategy for Disabled People last month. It is a joint strategy between the three relevant Departments, the Department of Housing, Local Government and Heritage, the Department of Health and my own Department.

Whilst the Department of Housing, Local Government and Heritage is leading on the implementation on the strategy, representatives from my Department will be involved in the implementation and monitoring framework and are committed to working on this important initiative.
