Joint Oireachtas Committee on Autism

Autism Policy: Discussion (Resumed)

1:05 am

Ms Rosalind No?l:

I will take the Senator's question about rooms. There are processes for this aspect. One is an assessment by an occupational therapist. I reiterate what has been said. We are talking about a very small resource that we have within the teams. To start this assessment process might be one task an occupational therapist is given. From a funding point of view, then, there are a couple of streams, including council funding and grant systems.
