Question:157. Deputy Paula Butterly asked the Minister for Children, Disability and Equality to explain the difference in early years disability support funding between CHO8 Louth/Meath and CHO1 Cavan/Monaghan, particularly regarding funded preschool and after school intervention places for children with additional needs; the reason CHO1 funds specialised services in some facilities, including 1:1 supports, while CHO8 offers no equivalent pathway for children in Louth; the basis for refusing cross CHO funding where no suitable local service exists; the steps that will be taken to ensure children in Louth have equal access to early intervention supports; and if she will make a statement on the matter.
