A Clare child with additional needs will have to wait a further year and a half without any significant treatment, due to his condition being more serious than initially thought.

Jack Linnane is a 2-year-old who hails from Kilfenora with communication difficulties.

His mother, Deirdre Linnane, believes her son is developing additional difficulties due to the extra 18 months without receiving any meaningful treatment.

To discuss this further, Deirdre Linnane joined Alan Morrissey in-studio.
