I am sorry to cut across Mr. Reid, but I have said before at meetings that it is heartbreaking as a parliamentarian when the response from the HSE is that children are going to be waiting four years for occupational therapy or speech and language therapy. We are sending this information to parents. It is heartbreaking to receive those letters. That is the experience the people who are contacting me are getting from the HSE.
