‹ Questions on Promised Legislation Ballyseedy autism centre
Summary
Deputy Ferris highlighted an unused autism centre in Ballyseedy and asked when it would open and be funded. The Taoiseach said there was no legislation promised and would ask the Minister for Health to respond.
For more than a year a state-of-the-art centre for children with autism has been lying idle in Ballyseedy, Tralee, County Kerry. It cost over €1 million but is still lying idle, much to the pain of the parents of autistic children. When will the Taoiseach commit to opening this centre and will he make the funding available for it?
