Written answers

Minister of State at the Department of Health and Children (Mr. S. Power)

The Health Service Executive has informed my Department that a draft copy of the report was received by the HSE Dublin north area on the evening of Thursday, 9 February 2006. It is understood from the HSE that this draft is currently being reviewed. The final report cannot be prepared until this process is completed. It is hoped that this process will be finalised by mid April 2006.
