Deputy Danny Healy-Rae asked the Minister for Health why elderly and invalided persons in County Kerry are not getting comparable levels of home help as in other counties such as County Cork, given that home help is rarely attainable in County Kerry at weekends, on bank holidays and on Christmas day; if this is because the Health Service Executive will not pay overtime costs or if there is a shortage of home help staff in County Kerry; and if he will make a statement on the matter.
