Pauline Tully: We are constantly encouraged to use public transport where available and to leave the car at home. I wish to raise problems with the bus service from Cavan to Dublin, the 109X. The service has sufficient capacity going to Dublin but there are huge problems with the return journey. Buses are at capacity when they reach the last stop out of Dublin, which is at Blanchardstown, from about 4.30...

Pauline Tully: At a recent meeting, the Minister of State at the Department of Health, Deputy Rabbitte, indicated that there would be a lot more work done with disabled students at second level about planning for their future, rather than just assuming they are going into a day service once they leave school.

Saincheisteanna Tráthúla - Topical Issue Debate: Disability Services Provision (28 Jul 2020)

Pauline Tully: I am calling for the immediate resumption of day car services for people with intellectual disabilities. It is imperative at this stage.

Joint Oireachtas Committee on Autism: Autism Policy: Discussion (Resumed) (25 Oct 2022)

Pauline Tully: I thank Ms McSherry and Dr. Crawford for their contributions to the committee. I know they were listening to some of the earlier session, at least. One thing common to all of those who have presented here is the amount of knowledge they have acquired out of necessity because the services and supports to support their children were not there. I commend them on the work they have done. The...

Ceisteanna Eile - Other Questions: Autism Support Services (15 Sep 2020)

Pauline Tully: While I welcome a stand-alone committee dealing with disabilities, I do not see autism as a disability; I see it as a different ability, I suppose. There was agreement that the State was failing children with autism and their families and we saw many cases where children's hours were being cut at school because they did not have the proper services or resources available. In many cases...

Joint Oireachtas Committee on Autism: Autism Policy: Discussion (Resumed) (31 Jan 2023)

Pauline Tully: From our engagement with people over the past months many have said that it seems to make a huge difference if there is a positive experience at school, especially at primary level, if supports are there.
