Joint Oireachtas Committee on Health and Children
Pre-Budget Submissions: Discussion with Community and Voluntary Groups
10:10 am
Mr. Sean Dillon:
I will be brief. I will answer in the order the questions were asked and if that is not sufficient, members should feel free to come back in. We have no confidence that implementation of the cuts is being done in a medically or clinically driven manner and the numbers do not allow that to happen. If 1 million hours are to be taken from 11 million hours in order to meet an €8 million budget reduction in home help over a couple of months, how else can this be done?
