Dáil Éireann Debate, Thursday - 2 October 2025
152. Deputy Colm Burke asked the Minister for Health the plans in place for a neurorehabilitation unit in Cork to include 20 post-acute inpatient neurorehabilitation beds, in 2026, in line with HSE proposals in order to address the lack of any existing service in the south-west region, given that the population has increased substantially in the past number of years; and if she will make a statement on the matter.

Amharc ar fhreagraThe Deputy will be aware that there are many services that the HSE needs to support each year from within its Oireachtas approved Budget. Please note that the level of funding available to each Government Department is being considered as part of the national estimates and budgetary process for 2026, which is currently underway.
Pending completion of this process, it wouldn't be appropriate for me to comment further on any proposals at this stage.
