Disability services report

Summary

Deputy Robert Troy sought publication of a HSE service improvement report affecting disability services in Longford and Athlone. The Taoiseach said he could not answer immediately but would find out.

Over two years ago the HSE initiated the service improvement team's report on the disability sector to ensure services such as St. Hilda's in Athlone and St. Christopher's in Longford were adequately funded. That report was completed more than 12 months ago but we are still awaiting its publication. As a direct consequence of that, services such as St. Christopher's are not being adequately resourced. When will the HSE live up to its commitment to publish the report to ensure services are adequately funded?

I cannot answer the Deputy's question now but I will find out what the answer is and give it to him.
