Only 4 assessments have been completed in the second quarter of this year under the six month legal limit.
Children are paying the price for government's failure according to Sinn Fein.
Just five per cent of children in Laois and Offaly who were given an assessment of need by the HSE in the second quarter of this year received it within the legal timeframe of six months.
Less than half (44%) in Longford/Westmeath were assessed in time.
Over 650 children are currently overdue on their assessment of need in the region.
Sinn Fein's Mental Health Spokesperson, Longford Westmeath TD Sorca Clarke says the State is neglecting young people:
