Deputy Pauline Tully asked the Minister for Children, Equality, Disability, Integration and Youth the estimated cost of providing 100,000, 200,000 and 500,000 additional personal assistance hours for people with disabilities, respectively; and if he will make a statement on the matter.

Amharc ar fhreagra664. Deputy Pauline Tully asked the Minister for Children, Equality, Disability, Integration and Youth the estimated capital cost of providing one, two and three additional adult day service centres in each of the nine CHO areas; and if he will make a statement on the matter.

Amharc ar fhreagra665. Deputy Pauline Tully asked the Minister for Children, Equality, Disability, Integration and Youth the estimated first and full year current costs of providing 740 additional adult day service places; and if he will make a statement on the matter. [54548/23]
Amharc ar fhreagraI propose to take Questions Nos. 651, 664 and 665 together.
As this question refers to service matters, I have asked the Health Service Executive (HSE) to respond to the Deputy directly, as soon as possible. As the Deputy may be aware, the industrial action that commenced on Friday 6th October, by management and administrative grades in Fórsa Trade Union in the HSE, will impact on the response times to Parliamentary Questions and Representations.
