Assisted Decision-Making
Dail Éireann — 2023-12-05
============================================================

Peter Burke (FG), Longford-Westmeath

It is very important that we articulate lived experiences, especially when going through a new system, so if the Deputy wants to give me the details of the person in question, I will absolutely bring them to the attention of the Minister, Deputy O'Gorman. It is important also that a steering group would see challenges. We know, as constituency TDs holding clinics, how circumstances can change rapidly in the lives of people going through difficult times, and it is important that the system support that in a user-friendly manner. If the Deputy wants to email me details of the case, I will happily raise it with the Minister and point out that it was raised as a Topical Issue.
