PQ 761
761. Deputy Donna McGettigan asked the Minister for Health if she can confirm that funding for a psychologist in Ennis day hospital was stopped in September 2024 when the previous psychologist retired, and was not resumed until this February when the process of replacement began; the reason the process was delayed for the intervening months and if lack of funding contributed to the delay; the reason the transition from one psychologist to a replacement was not planned in advance to make it seamless (given that it was retirement, not an unexpected occurrence); and if she will make a statement on the matter.
