Seanad debates

Order of Business.
Senator Terry mentioned the three month delay in the priority lists for young people who have been abused and need counselling and special programmes. I read the report which is appalling today. It is not the fault of those in Crumlin because I am sure they are busy. The delay for non-priority cases is seven months. It is more difficult to cope with this. I will bring the matter to the attention of the Minister for Health and Children and it might be useful to discuss it on the Adjournment in order to get precise information.
