Joint Oireachtas Committee on Health and Children

Challenges facing Camphill Communities of Ireland: Discussion

9:30 am

Mr. Joe Lynch:

We have not done it yet because we were hoping the HSE would engage with us. We had a meeting with the local HSE yesterday morning and it is saying pretty much what the banks are saying. It comes back to Deputy Mitchell O'Connor's point. At local level the HSE says exactly what a bank says, namely, that it is a business case and will have to go to the unit in Dublin. The unit in Dublin then says it cannot give us the money. Therein lies the crux of the matter.
