The Taoiseach mentioned the importance of marking the International Day of People with Disabilities. What about people who have a disability and are looking for respite care? I raised this with the Taoiseach last week and hoped to get the Minister for Health today. We were told that Cuisle was closing on Friday. Families are being pushed towards a hotel model. Unfortunately, for many of the people who used to go to Cuisle, hotels are not suitable. They are not inclusive places. Is there some sort of plan for a replacement for those people caught in this situation?
