The Health Service Executive has responsibility for the provision of home support hours. Accordingly I have arranged for this element of the Deputy's question to be referred to the Health Service Executive for direct reply to the Deputy.

The provision of home tuition hours is a matter for the Minister for Education and Skills. I have referred the second element of the Deputy's question to the Department of Education and Skills for direct reply to the Deputy.
