2814. Deputy Aindrias Moynihan asked the Minister for Children, Disability and Equality the number of persons in Cork County awaiting residential placement, emergency placements and respite services, respectively; the number receiving fewer respite nights than assessed as required; and if she will make a statement on the matter. [55936/26]

I wish to thank the Deputy for raising this question. As this question refers to service matters, I have asked the Health Service Executive (HSE) to respond to the Deputy directly.
