My question is on children's respite services in Galway. Crannóg respite service caters for children with complex medical needs. It is only open for 19 nights each month and needs to be expanded to include more children. Crannmór respite centre for children with autism needs an alternative location. Currently, if children require emergency respite, the only option available for parents is to bring their child to an accident and emergency department, which is crazy. Will the Taoiseach commit to extending children's respite services in the Galway area?
