Vote 40 - Children, Equality, Disability, Integration and Youth (18 Apr 2024) Paul McAuliffe: I thank the witnesses. For my sins I have been voting on the Planning and Development Bill next door so I apologise if I ask questions which have already been asked. I will review the transcript either way. There are three areas I want to talk about, the first of which is the capital budget for disabilities. Disability has been taken from health and is now with the witnesses'...

Vote 40 - Children, Equality, Disability, Integration and Youth (18 Apr 2024) Paul McAuliffe: Will it mirror or be substantially different from the HSE capital plan process?
- Public Accounts Committee: 2022 Report of the Comptroller and Auditor General and Appropriation Accounts
Vote 40 - Children, Equality, Disability, Integration and Youth (18 Apr 2024) Paul McAuliffe: So there will be priorities from the Department but they will be delivered via the HSE capital plan programme.

Vote 40 - Children, Equality, Disability, Integration and Youth (18 Apr 2024) Paul McAuliffe: Mr. Ó Conaill got my hopes up at the beginning when he said it would be separate, but then he dashed them. The HSE capital plan process is so slow and one of the benefits of taking disability out of the Department of Health was the reason he just said, that it was not getting the priority it should and often capital projects were the poor relation of other capital projects. It would be...
- Public Accounts Committee: 2022 Report of the Comptroller and Auditor General and Appropriation Accounts
Vote 40 - Children, Equality, Disability, Integration and Youth (18 Apr 2024) Paul McAuliffe: My understanding is a service with a national remit still needs to be sponsored by the local CHO as part of the HSE capital programme. Is that correct?
- Public Accounts Committee: 2022 Report of the Comptroller and Auditor General and Appropriation Accounts
Vote 40 - Children, Equality, Disability, Integration and Youth (18 Apr 2024) Paul McAuliffe: I will give an example. A service in my area, Teach an Saol, provides resources and supports for those with acquired brain injuries. Its representatives met with the Minister several times and met with HSE estates. There is a real question around who is the decision-maker and the champion of the project. It is a national service so the benefit locally in the CHO is quite limited but...

Vote 40 - Children, Equality, Disability, Integration and Youth (18 Apr 2024) Paul McAuliffe: I could understand the reluctance of a chief operating officer in a local CHO, with all the demands they have in their area, on being offered a project with a national remit. They are saying it will not be a priority for them because they have many other areas in their CHO. It requires a project like that to be carried at national level. Does Mr. Ó Conaill agree?

- Public Accounts Committee: 2022 Report of the Comptroller and Auditor General and Appropriation Accounts
Vote 40 - Children, Equality, Disability, Integration and Youth (18 Apr 2024) Paul McAuliffe: Excellent. My second question is on youth services. We have a funding system whereby youth services are funded with two streams. There is a justice stream and a Department of children stream. An analysis has to be done of those two streams. Many projects have both streams coming in. There are different models across the country, In Dublin, we have the old City of Dublin Youth Service...

Vote 40 - Children, Equality, Disability, Integration and Youth (18 Apr 2024) Paul McAuliffe: Is the Department engaging with the Department of Justice on that?
- Public Accounts Committee: 2022 Report of the Comptroller and Auditor General and Appropriation Accounts
Vote 40 - Children, Equality, Disability, Integration and Youth (18 Apr 2024) Paul McAuliffe: The difficulty is that the biggest expansions in youth services in my area have been led by the Department of Justice, rather than the Department of children. The difficulty in that regard is that the Department of Justice and the Garda diversion programme is very much aimed at those children who need direct intervention but one always has to be aware that there are kids who are not engaged...
- Public Accounts Committee: 2022 Report of the Comptroller and Auditor General and Appropriation Accounts
Vote 40 - Children, Equality, Disability, Integration and Youth (18 Apr 2024) Paul McAuliffe: I have one last point. There is a crisis among independent youth services in Dublin. The connection with CDYSB and its role, and the Department's intervention, is needed really quickly before the summer because, bizarrely, in an area where we are increasing funding, there will have to be staff reductions.
