555. Deputy Catherine Connolly asked the Minister for Children, Disability and Equality the number of children currently waiting to be seen by CDNTs in the CHO2 area, by team and number of weeks waiting; and if she will make a statement on the matter. [49943/25]

556. Deputy Catherine Connolly asked the Minister for Children, Disability and Equality the number of children currently waiting for an assessment of need; the number of children in CHO2 who are currently waiting for an assessment of need; and if she will make a statement on the matter. [49944/25]

I propose to take Questions Nos. 555 and 556 together.

As this question refers to service matters, I have asked the Health Service Executive (HSE) to respond to the Deputy directly, as soon as possible.
