Written Answers. - Hospital Waiting Lists.
208 Ms Shortall asked the Minister for Health and Children when a person (details supplied) in Dublin 11 will undergo the necessary surgery in view of the fact he has been on a waiting list for over two years; and if he will make a statement on the matter. [6927/98]
As the determination of in-patient appointments is a matter for the hospital authorities in the first instance, I have asked the chief executive officer of the Mater Misericordiae Hospital to investigate the position regarding this patient. Given the particular circumstances of this case, I have requested that he reply to the Deputy directly, as a matter of urgency.
