As the Deputy is aware, Sustaining Progress makes a commitment that "the Department of Health and Children will carry out a strategic review of existing service provision, in consultation with relevant interests, with a view to enhancing health and personal social services to meet the needs of people with disabilities". This review has commenced and it is anticipated that it will be completed within the lifetime of Sustaining Progress, that is, by the end of 2005.
