Covid-19 (Health): Statements
Dail Éireann — 2020-06-11
============================================================

Róisín Shortall (SD), Dublin North-West

There is another point I want to raise. A couple of weeks ago I raised with the Minister here the funding crisis facing many disability organisations for various reasons, Covid obviously, but also resulting from the €20 million cut that took place earlier this year in January. Two weeks ago in this House the Minister stated:
Being blunt and honest, they will not be in a position to achieve [this cut] and I have made that clear to them. We need to look at how we can formalise that and provide them with peace of mind in that regard in the coming days.
That was two weeks ago. Does the Minister now have clarification and hopefully good news on that?
