Disability Services
Dail Éireann — 2025-11-19
============================================================

John Cummins (FG), Waterford

The Deputy has articulated very well the importance of this service to her community in Louth and the entire north-east area of the country. There is a commitment in the programme for Government to ensure the continued roll-out of the neuro-rehabilitation strategy, and community teams form a critical element of that. Budget 2026 has invested significant additional moneys in this area. That will have to be reflected in the HSE national service plan. There is a commitment to focus on the areas that do not have a team and to expand the areas that have only partial teams in place.
Again, I will take the points the Deputy raised back to the Minister for Health.
