Written answers

Cancer treatment for children in Ireland is led and directed by Our Lady's Children's Hospital Crumlin, Dublin, who operate a Shared Care Model system with other hospitals.

I am advised by the Saolta University Hospital Group that four children who have cancer are being treated in Sligo Regional Hospital and nine children in Letterkenny General Hospital under the direction of Our Lady's Children's Hospital.
