Violet-Anne Wynne (IND), Clare

Children with complex additional needs are some of the most vulnerable people in our society. Children's disability network teams, CDNTs, play a vital role in the development and support of these children and their families. I am horrified that today, 99 Clare children who have been referred are still waiting to be seen by the CDNT in Clare. That does not take account of the children that still await a referral. The programme for Government commits explicitly to support the services. However, these families are being failed. What can the Taoiseach tell these children and their families today?
