- Joint Oireachtas Committee on Autism: Autism Policy: Discussion (12 Jul 2022)
Mark Wall: I thank the Minister of State for coming in this morning. It is much appreciated. I listened to her opening statement from my office.

- Joint Oireachtas Committee on Autism: Autism Policy: Discussion (12 Jul 2022)
Mark Wall: It is great that we have another chance to talk to Mr. Harris. I join with colleagues in thanking him and AsIAm for everything they do for autistic people in this State.

Mark Wall: I will raise two issues with the Deputy Leader. The first is one I am sure other Members of the House have come across in recent weeks.

I recognise the important work that our community welfare officers, CWOs, carry out each day on the front line of this cost-of-living crisis. Over many years, I...
