Letter dated 14th December 2017, from Kildare County Council regarding the down-grading of Portlaoise Hospital.
Could the Chief Executive provide information on the HSE’s Connecting for Life, Ireland’s National Strategy to Reduce Suicide 2015-2020 and the plans for the County in this regard.
This Council is opposed to the policy of requiring those in need of emergency accommodation to self-accommodate. We call on the Chief Executive to raise this matter with the Dublin Homeless Executive and the Minister for Housing and to introduce a policy whereby emergency accommodation is sources by SDCC staff directly. If additional resources are required then the Chief Executive should apply to the Department for this.
