On foot of a request by the former ERHA, my Department issued letters to the Stardust Victims Committee in September 2002, May 2003 and again in August 2003 requesting information on the names and addresses and the type of counselling required so that arrangements could be made for the provision of these services. To date no reply has been received.
Counselling is available to people through the health services. Local GPs should have a list of counsellors that they could recommend. Alternatively, the general manager, community care, HSE northern area, Cromcastle Road, Coolock, Dublin 5, Tel. 01-816033, will be able to help.
