Text

I thank the Minister for his answer. Several people in Mid Ulster followed advertisements on television — that is the right thing to do — and reached out but did not get the help that they needed: help came too late. Further to the answer that you gave me, have there been any improvements in the past number of months, or is that is what is there? Have there been any improvements in the service? I ask because, when they reached out, the help was not there.
