Joint Committee On Children, Equality, Disability, Integration And Youth: Children's Unmet Needs: Discussion (Resumed) (22 Mar 2022)

David Cullinane: I am sorry, but the witnesses are missing the point. I am infuriated with the responses that I have received through parliamentary questions on these issues.

Joint Committee On Children, Equality, Disability, Integration And Youth: Children's Unmet Needs: Discussion (Resumed) (22 Mar 2022)

David Cullinane: My comments are not directed at staff; they are directed at the management of the services. I repeat what I said; we should be ashamed of ourselves given the level of services that some children are not getting. If Professor MacLachlan read any of the reports from AsIAm or Inclusion Ireland on the surveys they carried out, the vast majority of children get no services or get patchy or...

Joint Committee On Children, Equality, Disability, Integration And Youth: Children's Unmet Needs: Discussion (Resumed) (22 Mar 2022)

David Cullinane: I want to come back to something that the head of the HSE, Mr. Reid, said in his opening statement.
