Dáil Éireann Debate, Wednesday - 26 September 2007
394 Deputy Fergus O’Dowd asked the Minister for Health and Children if she will carry out an investigation into the death of a person (details supplied) in County Louth and the issues in relation to the response from the doctor on call service; and if she will make a statement on the matter. [20622/07]
View answerI would like to offer my sympathy to the family of the person referred to in the Deputy's question.
The Deputy's question relates to the management and delivery of health and personal social services, which are the responsibility of the Health Service Executive under the Health Act 2004. Accordingly, my Department has requested the Parliamentary Affairs Division of the Executive to arrange to have this matter investigated and to have a reply issued directly to the Deputy as a matter of urgency.
