Children's disability teams

Summary

Deputy Farrell raised serious staffing shortages in children’s disability network teams across the country. The Taoiseach said he would raise the matter and follow it through.

As the Taoiseach is aware, the HSE is having significant and sustained issues with retaining suitable staff to complete the 91 children's disability network teams across the country. Will he please outline the steps the Government is taking to arrest this critical deficit within the service, which is having an adverse impact on young people across the country?

Comment on this

I will certainly raise that and follow that through for the Deputy. He has raised a very fair point.
