Micheál Martin (FF), Cork South-Central

I thank the Deputy for raising this issue. It is not one of resources. Funding has been provided through the Department of Health to the HSE to provide for the recruitment of therapists, particularly in disability network teams. The HSE says it is having particular difficulties recruiting therapists for child disability services. We are not happy with the situation. We have had a series of meetings involving the Departments of Education and Health on this issue of the availability and access to therapists within CDNTs. It is a big issue that the HSE needs to resolve.
