Dail Éireann — 2023-05-10
============================================================

Stephen Donnelly (FF), Wicklow

Yes. I am more than happy to get the Deputy a list. The three being actively looked at and worked on are councillors and psychotherapists, psychologists and social care workers. There are two more designated in the future, so they are further along, and they are orthoptists and clinical biochemists. The list of others is as follows: acupuncturists; athletic therapists; audiologists; chiropractors; clinical measurement physiologists; clinical scientists; creative arts therapists; exercise professionals; healthcare assistants, to whom we referred earlier; hypnotherapists, music therapists; nutrition therapists; operating department practitioners; osteopaths; pharmacy technicians; physician associates; play therapists; prosthetists and orthotists; reflexologists; and relationship mentors.
