I hear everything Mr. Dunne says. This is sometimes very much akin to the issue of rough sleeping in that there are supports there but for various reasons people fall between the cracks or do not know where to access those supports. Does Mr. Dunne think that separating the caring support connection from the public health nurse structure might be of benefit? The public health nurse has a much wider remit, whereas somebody with a more specific focus on supporting family carers would have more time.
