Question 163: To ask the Minister for Health and Children if the Health Service Executive will define the standardised approach for the allocation of home help hours and specifically the meaning in terms of the client of the impact on the availability of necessary hours; in terms of the HSE home help employees, the way the standardisation will affect their terms and conditions and or contract of employment; in terms of the private providers, if there are limits on hours available to clients through provision of hours delivered by direct HSE home helps; and if these limits will be mirrored by restrictions on funding allocated to private providers who deliver care services on behalf of the HSE.
