593. To ask the Minister for Children and Youth Affairs if consent of both parents is required before a child can be referred to a play therapist; and if she will make a statement on the matter. [2929/19]

The issue of parental consent, within the context of play therapy, does not fall under the remit of my Department.

This issue falls under the remit of the HSE.  The question is therefore more appropriate for my colleague the Minister for Health, Deputy Simon Harris.
