Peadar Tóibín
Question:515. Deputy Peadar Tóibín asked the Minister for Health further to Parliamentary Question No. 1034 of 26 April 2022, if he plans to conduct across-Departmental budgetary analysis with the Department of Social Protection in relation to the maximum amount by which the household income earnings threshold for carer’s allowance could be raised which would be still be more cost effective to the State in many instances than a HSE-funded homecare package and would help address the shortage of homecare workers; and if he will make a statement on the matter.
