Paschal Donohoe (Dublin Central, Fine Gael) | Oireachtas source

Every single line Minister and Department will always want more resources. The Deputy asked me whether I was contacted about the allocation of additional resources. I am - all of the time. Every Minister wants to do his or her best for citizens to whom they have a responsibility. It is my job to try to meet those needs out of the resources available to us. I will work with the Minister of State, Deputy Finian McGrath, to meet needs in the disability sector. It is an issue on which I have worked with him in the past when he looked for my support in making funds available to promote assisted decision-making. I made funding available in budget 2018 and have tried to meet the requests he has made to support requirements in the disability sector.
