Margaret Murphy O'Mahony (Cork South West, Fianna Fail) | Oireachtas source

What does the Government intend to do about the large numbers of children who are waiting for an assessment of need? Under the Disability Act 2005, these children have a legal right to be seen within three months and for their assessment to be completed within six months. What is the Government going to do? Some 40% of the children who are waiting are in Kerry and from our own County Cork, so I would like to know the Tánaiste's thoughts on this please.
