144. To ask the Minister for Education and Skills the timeframe for conducting an assessment of need following an application being received; if there are variations between different parts of the country; if so, the locations in which they are different; the reason that is the case; if cases such as the case of the person (details supplied) are commonplace; if not, the changes occurring; the reason they are occurring; and if he will make a statement on the matter.

I can advise the Deputy that the Assessment of Need process to which she refers in her question falls under the Disability Act 2005 and within the responsibilities of the Health Service Executive (HSE) and therefore the matter should be addressed to my colleague the Minister for Health.
