I propose to take Questions Nos. 414 and 416 together.
The Minister for Health receives representations and requests for meetings on or behalf of people with a disability on a regular basis.
I received a request to meet a parent of a child with Prader-Willi Syndrome which is under consideration, but as it appears to be a service issue, it is more appropriate to be dealt with by the Health Service Executive (HSE).
It is suggested that the lady contact the local HSE Disability Manager, to arrange an appointment to discuss her concerns.
Under the Health Act 2004, the HSE is required to manage and deliver, or arrange to be delivered on its behalf, health and personal services, including disability services.
