Gabhaim buíochas leis an Aire as ucht a fhreagra.
The Minister will know that the lifestyle framework is intended to provide coherent life stage-specific support from early age to old age, but, as he will also know, stakeholders argue that the draft strategy has diluted its ambition. Will the Minister outline whether the draft strategy includes robust measurable commitments for each life stage? Does it maintain genuine co-design input?
