Amharc ar fhreagra481. Deputy Pauline Tully asked the Minister for Children, Equality, Disability, Integration and Youth the respite places that were delivered in 2020, 2021, 2022 and to date in 2023; and the respite places that were allocated in Budget 2024. [51934/23]
Amharc ar fhreagraI propose to take Questions Nos. 479 and 481 together.
As these questions refer to service matters, I have asked the Health Service Executive (HSE) to respond to the Deputy directly, as soon as possible.
As the Deputy may be aware, the industrial action that commenced on Friday 6th October, by management and administrative grades in Fórsa Trade Union in the HSE, will impact on the response times to Parliamentary Questions and Representations.
