Ciarán Lynch (Cork South Central, Labour)

I congratulate Deputy Hayes on this motion. Sometimes one must revert to the origin in examining a problem. The day a parent learns that a child is autistic is a day the parent learns that life will be full of challenges. These challenges should not be met by obstacles placed by Government, as seen in recent court cases. How much money has the Minister spent on legal fees challenging parents when that money could resolve the ABA issue and other matters?
