Vol. 491 No. 2
120 Ms McManus asked the Minister for Health and Children the latest figures for waiting lists for each public hospital in each health board area specified by specialty; and the equivalent figures for June and December 1997. [11614/98]
The information requested by the Deputy is set out in the following tables. December 1997 is the latest period for which figures are available to date. I have recently established a review group to advise on how best to maximise the effectiveness of the current waiting list initiative. The group has been asked to conclude its work by the end of June.
