Joint Committee On Children, Equality, Disability, Integration And Youth

Children's Unmet Needs: Discussion (Resumed)

Ms Ann O'Connor:

I will ask Mr. O'Regan about the detail around the CHO. CHO 4 has been our most challenged area in terms of the number of assessments sought, the backlog, etc. I cannot answer as to why somebody has not received a response from the head of disability. I ask Mr. O'Regan to give any insights into CHO 4, which is Cork-Kerry.
