Mr. Chris Macey:

I echo something Ms Farrell said in response to the Deputy question's about the implementation of plans. We suffer from implementation deficit disorder in this country, particularly in the HSE. The national neurorehabilitation policy was published in 2011. The implementation plan was not published until 2019 and it was a framework for 2019 to 2021. One month remains and nothing has been achieved, and there has been no funding for it. As the Neurological Alliance of Ireland has stated, it has been ten years wasted for neurorehabilitation, which includes stroke and other acquired brain injuries.
