Deputy Caoimhghín Ó Caoláin asked the Minister for Health his views on the reason that of the national carers strategy's 42 objectives, only one objective has been achieved to date, with 19 showing only initial progress, ten showing no progress and, most worryingly, eight having regressed; whether the 19% cut to the respite care grant in budget 2012 will now be reversed; if the halving of funding for housing grant schemes will be reversed and if the current poor discharge planning and lack of consultation with family carers when their loved one moves from hospital to home care will be addressed; and if he will make a statement on the matter.
