The Government is falling short in addressing the long-running crisis in care, support and services for people with eating disorders.

That's according to local TD Claire Kerrane, who's raised the matter in the Dáil.

She said there's a desperate need for more inpatient beds and specialist training.

Sinn Fein Deputy Kerrane told Tánaiste Simon Harris she recently attended a briefing by Cared Ireland, which laid bare how people are struggling.
