421. Deputy Colm Keaveney asked the Minister for Health the whole-time equivalents working in the intellectual disability sector, the number employed by the Health Service Executive, and the number employed by agencies, by grade, in tabular form; and if he will make a statement on the matter.

I have asked the HSE to respond to the Deputy directly on this matter. 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.
