Government accused of lacking political will to help those who need waste waiver for incontinence wear

Cork TD Seán Sherlock has queried why the government is not taking practical steps to help people who need waste waiver.

The Government has been accused of lacking the political will to help families who would benefit from a waste waiver for those who rely on incontinence wear.

A national waste waiver scheme has been mooted as a way of helping families facing additional charges because of the use of incontinence pads or pull-ups.
