To ask the Minister for Health if he will restore home help hours in 2013 to at least their 2011 level; and if he will make a statement on the matter. [13792/13]

I have already indicated that care provision in 2013 for the Home Help Service, will be restored to 2012 levels.

As is the case with all aspects of HSE service plans, the Home Help services are reviewed on a regular basis, in the context of achieving agreed targets or taking account of evolving circumstances over the course of 2013.
