Parents of children with disabilities "do not feel seen" by Budget 2025 with many left “insulted” by the lack of forward planning, Rebecca O’Riordan from FUSS Ireland said.

The disability budget for next year comes to €3.2bn but the Cork mother and advocate said this and other changes still do not meet historic gaps in funding.
