Minister of State at the Department of Health

I propose to take Questions Nos. 237 and 238 together.

The Minister has no direct function concerning the management of health and personal social services provision to a particular individual.

Under the Health Act 2004, the HSE is required to manage and deliver, or arrange to be delivered on its behalf, health and personal social services including services to people with a disability.

As the Deputy's question relates to a service matter, I am referring the question for response to the HSE for direct reply to the Deputy as soon as possible.

Question No. 238 answered with Question No. 237.
