89. To ask the Minister for Children and Youth Affairs further to Parliamentary Question No. 255 of 12 June 2014 if he will provide the expenses claimed by members of staff attending Health Service Executive child care conferences; his views on the number of staff attending these conferences; and to which section of the HSE they are affiliated.

I am assuming the child care case conference referred to by the Deputy are those which come under the aegis of the Child and Family Agency. It should be noted that case conferences of this type are case specific. Consequently, the composition of the attendees would not be set and can include staff from the Agency, doctors, public health nurses, psychologists, other health professionals, teachers, Gardaí, Probation officers and other self employed professionals. In relation to expenses claimed by HSE staff from the HSE, this is outside of my remit and I cannot provide this information to the Deputy.

In relation to expenses claimed by Agency staff, I have asked if it is possible to disaggregate the relevant information and I will revert to the Deputy when a response is to hand.
