I propose to take Questions Nos. 336 and 340 together.

The Health Service Executive (HSE) Social Care Division and the HSE Clinical Programme and Strategy Division are working in tandem to progress the implementation of the National Policy & Strategy for the provision of Neuro-rehabilitation Services in Ireland.This is in line with the commitment to publish an implementation plan as outlined in the Programme for a Partnership Government and the commitment in the HSE National Service Plan 2017 and HSE Social Care Operational Plan for 2017.

As the Deputy's questions relates to a service matter, I have arranged for the questions to be referred to the Health Service Executive for a direct reply to the Deputy.
