The Department of Health and Children does not fund organisations working in the disability sector directly. Under the Health Act 2004, the Health Service Executive has responsibility for the management and delivery of health and personal social services. As the Deputy's question relates to service matters I have arranged for the question to be referred to the Health Service Executive for direct reply.
