Question 659: To ask the Minister for Health and Children if the transport of those with disabilities who are over the age of 18 years to training centres falls within the remit of her Department and the Health Service Executive, as home-to-centre transport is essential for such school leavers, who need secure transport to access training facilities; and if she will make a statement on the matter.

The Deputy's question relates to the management and delivery of health and personal services, which are the responsibility of the Health Service Executive under the Health Act 2004. Accordingly, my Department has requested the Parliamentary Affairs Division of the Executive to arrange to have this case investigated and to have a reply issued directly to the Deputy.
