Fianna Fáil’s Anne Rabbitte has blasted the HSE for a “soul destroying” response to a Government colleague over her attempt to help a child with autism.
Fine Gael TD Jennifer Carroll MacNeill has said she is “beyond embarrassed” about insufficient responses to parents’ requests for supports for autistic children.
She raised the matter at a Joint Committee on Autism on Tuesday with Ms Rabbitte, who is the Minister responsible for disability.
