Dáil Éireann Debate, Thursday - 2 June 2022
404. Deputy Aengus Ó Snodaigh asked the Minister for Health if any other residential facilities for people with disabilities in Ireland other than St. Joseph’s Community Hospital in Stranorlar in County Donegal requested additional funding for safeguarding reasons; and if so, the way that the HSE responded to these requests. [28863/22]
View answerThe quantum of services to be provided by the HSE is considered as part of the Budgetary and National Service Planning process. The HSE National Service Plan (NSP) for 2022, sets out, at a high level, the health and social care services to be provided within the HSE's allocated budget of €20.7bn.
The HSE manages its expenditure in line with its annual funding determination.
As the Deputy's question relates to the funding of a specific service, I am referring the question to the HSE for a direct reply to the Deputy as soon as possible.
