2844. Deputy Ruairí Ó Murchú asked the Minister for Children, Disability and Equality To ask the Minister for Children, Disability and Equality the positions that are unfilled by CDNT team; the plans to fill these, in tabular form if she will make a statement on the matter. [59909/26]

I propose to take Questions Nos. 2843 and 2844 together.

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.
