I have come across the issue raised by Deputy Cairns with foster families saying they would like to pay for an assessment of need or occupational therapy but they are being told they cannot do so. I am in the Carlow-Kilkenny constituency and Deputy Cairns is in Cork so there must be an issue. It is good that it has been raised, and we will leave it with the representatives. I have come across this recently.
