Galway Bay fm newsroom - A local TD says plans for improved services for mental health and disabilities seem to be "going into the ether".
Deputy Sean Canney was contributing to a Dáil debate - on why the Government has not ratified an optional protocol - in the UN Convention on the Rights of People with Disabilities.
The optional protocol would provide a mechanism for people to launch a challenge - when their rights are not being upheld
Deputy Canney said there seems to be plenty of talk about doing something in the future - or creating a pipeline of actions to be taken.
But he said that pipeline seems to always get diverted and ends up nowhere.
