Show Notes
New figures obtained by Newstalk have revealed 12,722 children are overdue an assessment of need. This is an increase of nearly 4,000 since the end of 2023. But why is this assessment so important for children with additional needs, along with their parents, and how critical are the impact of the delays?
Newstalk Reporter Andrew Louth has been looking into this and reported back to Pat on the show.
