Questions (1424)

Claire Kerrane

Question:

1424. Deputy Claire Kerrane asked the Minister for Health if she will consider extending the medical card scheme to cover autism assessments for adults given the cost of such assessments can be a barrier for adults; if she will ensure that adults with autism are diagnosed correctly and therefore not prevented from accessing supports; and if she will make a statement on the matter.

This PQ is not for the Department of Health. We respectfully request that this Parliamentary Question be redirected to the Department of Children, Disability and Equality as the matters raised fall under their remit.
