Hildegarde Naughton (Galway West, Fine Gael)

I am happy to engage with the Deputy relating to that. At a general level, where a person has a disability, and I have different groups coming in to me, we want to see they have access to those multidisciplinary teams. If there is something specialist - I am not an expert in the area and maybe something else is required in that space where if a person needs the services - they get access to them within the community. We assess disability status on functional need. That is the basis. It is not a prescriptive list of conditions. There is no impediment for conditions and access to supports. What the Deputy and the group wants is the access to the supports they need when they need it.
