Ceisteanna (224)

Pádraig O'Sullivan

Ceist:

224. Deputy Pádraig O'Sullivan asked the Minister for Children, Disability and Equality the vacancy rates for each of the twelve CORU-regulated health and social care professions in the public health service in each of the past five years, noting that the April 2025 CDNT Workforce Report recorded a 21% vacancy rate for health and social care professionals in Children's Disability Network Teams; the progress that has been made in reducing that rate; whether the additional health and social care professional student places approved in June 2025 are sufficient to address current vacancies alongside projected increases in demand across those professions to 2040 [38070/26]

As this question refers to the service matters, I have asked the Health Service Executive (HSE) to respond to the Deputy directly, as soon as possible.
