Joint Oireachtas Committee on Disability Matters

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

Mr. David Walsh:

It is showing a commitment to do things better. Some of the things we need to figure out - and it is all now under the same Government Department in the Department of Children, Equality, Disability, Integration and Youth - is the relationship between what we do, what Tusla does, what the schools do and what we demand of each other. We have reservations about some of the assessments schools believe they need to make decisions about kids. We do not necessarily think they need them. They just need to go on the presenting conditions. That is something we are working with the Department of Children, Equality, Disability, Integration and Youth on to try to figure it out in a better way.

On the capital plan, I understand that capital funding is within the plan. I do not know the details-----
