597. To ask the Minister for Health further to Parliamentary Question No. 170 of 9 February 2022, how the HSE's Capital Plan for Cork residential mental health services can be in accordance with either the UN Convention on the Rights of People with Disabilities or the HSE's own Model of Care for People with Severe and Enduring Mental Illness and Complex Needs when it involves replacement of facilities for 'continuing care' residents on the grounds of St. Stephen’s Hospital, Glanmire and St. Finbarr’s Hospital, Cork, as opposed to the further development of community-integrated services for this cohort of service-users; and if he will make a statement on the matter.

As this is a service matter, I have asked the Health Service Executive to respond directly to the Deputy as soon as possible.
