Anne Rabbitte (FF), Galway East

There is no doubt there was a vacuum in disability services. We are reinstating respite services for adults and children. The question is really about respite for older people. I do not have an answer for the Deputy. I will ask the Minister of State, Deputy Butler, to provide an answer later. I spoke to her last night about home care support in Galway and how many were on a waiting list for home care support. She told me 51 people are awaiting home care support. I will address the respite issue with the Minister of State, Deputy Butler, later.
