Written Answers. - Hospital Waiting Lists.

Gay Mitchell

Question:

180 Mr. G. Mitchell asked the Minister for Health and Children if a person (details supplied) in Dublin 12 will receive physiotherapy treatment urgently. [11888/99]

The course of treatment and the scheduling of patient appointments is a matter for the hospital authorities in the first instance, based on a clinical assessment of need. I have asked the Chief Executive Officer of the Mater 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.
