20. To ask the Minister for Health the funding made available for County Galway and south Mayo for home help packages in 2016; if his attention has been drawn to the fact that as a result of going over budget early in the year to relieve the pressure on the hospital, the service has now been severely curtailed with the result that there are both delayed discharges and delayed admissions to the hospital; the steps that have or will be taken to make sufficient funds available to rectify the situation; and if he will make a statement on the matter.
