Will the Minister support the ask of FND Ireland that funding be provided for a multidisciplinary specialist FND clinic at St. James's Hospital Dublin? The group has asked for this and people need it. There are an estimated 9,000 people in Ireland suffering with functional neurologic disorder, known as FND. It is very debilitating. There is chronic fatigue and many other symptoms. Group representatives were here and lobbied us all two weeks ago. They have asked for funding for this clinic in Dublin, which would mean there was one in Ireland, to deal with this debilitating chronic condition. Will the Minister consider it and try to provide funding for this clinic at St. James's Hospital?

I thank the Deputy. I am familiar with how FND or fibromuscular dysplasia has an impact on a lot of people across our country. I do not have the specifics of the wider service plan within the HSE but I acknowledge the impact for families and for people and communities across our country. The specialist care for neurology may be based in St. James's Hospital, so I will ask the Minister, Deputy Donnelly, to respond directly to the Deputy to set out what the wider plans are on supporting patients and those who live with FND.
