Joint Oireachtas Committee on Disability Matters

Rights-Based Care for People with Disabilities: Discussion (Resumed)

Mr. David Walsh:

-----and we just need to support them to get them back up on their feet and we need to convince them we are going to follow this through. That is our combined task on this side of the table. Obviously, we need to convince the Deputy and other representatives as well in relation to that. We are trying to build through the road map and through the action plan to show a commitment to people that we are trying to build things up. We have a lot of convincing to do. From speaking to people who have worked on these CDNTs, they are very frustrated. They are very professional people who really are incredibly disappointed they cannot provide the type of services they want to to all the families. The Deputy mentioned a figure there of nearly 1,500 children-----
