Bernard J. Durkan
Question:114 Mr. Durkan asked the Minister for Health when a person (details supplied) in County Kildare will gain admission to Beaumont Hospital for surgery which was deemed necessary one year ago and which has been twice postponed by the hospital authorities with obvious disappointment and stress to the patient; if it is recognised that the delays in gaining access to surgery is likely to exacerbate the situation; and if he will make a statement on the matter.
