Joint Oireachtas Committee on Social Protection
Green Paper on Disability Reform: Department of Social Protection
Dr. Devesh Singh:
It is not necessary in all cases, but on occasion we do make contact. We have systems in place. For example, we have a very good system in place with the National Rehabilitation Hospital in Dún Laoghaire whereby they write directly to me rather than going through the process. Those are very due deserving cases. Something like 30 to 60 contacts are made by us to GPs and different healthcare providers.
