The Minister has stated the HSE is finalising its plans for the centres. I ask him to apply the same urgency to this matter as he did to the issues discussed earlier in regard to Kilkenny and Wexford hospitals. He will need to take a hands-on approach because people are suffering from epilepsy and young children are unable to access the full spectrum of services they need. I ask him to ensure the units are fully funded and operational because they are necessary for those who suffer from or have been diagnosed with epilepsy.
