Joint Oireachtas Committee on Autism
Services and Supports Provided by the State for Autistic People: Discussion (Resumed)
Dr. Rosalyn Tamming:
It is just a hope at this stage but we will certainly make a case for it to the Department. The Department is aware, and I do not think it disagrees, that it needs to be reviewed. It is more of a timing issue, given so many aspects have to be sequenced. The Department is not averse to it. We have not decided the length of the strategy but even it was a five-year strategy, it is probably feasible it could happen within that timeframe.
