Minister of State at the Department of Health

The Redwood Extended Care Facility in Stamullen, County Meath is part of the privately owned Talbot Group. The Health Service Executive (HSE), Louth/Meath Integrated Services Area engages with the Talbot Group via a Service Level Arrangement to provide residential and day services for clients with disabilities and complex needs.

As the Deputy's question relates to service matters, I have arranged for the question to be referred to the HSE for direct reply to the Deputy. If the Deputy has not received a reply from the HSE within 15 working days, he can contact my Private Office and they will follow the matter up with the HSE.
