2871. Deputy Mark Ward asked the Minister for Children, Disability and Equality the number of staff available to carry out assessments of needs in Dublin Mid-West; by CDNT; the number of vacancies for same, in tabular form; and if she will make a statement on the matter. [57092/26]

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