As the Deputy's question relates to service issues and as the information on waiting times for an initial assessment for speech and language therapy services for children is not routinely returned to my Department by the HSE, I have asked the HSE to respond directly to the Deputy in these matters. If you have not received a reply from the HSE within 15 working days please contact my Private Office and they will follow up the matter with them.

Question No. 427 answered with Question No. 346.
