Question:

470. Deputy John McGuinness asked the Minister for Health the number of retired Health Service Executive staff appointed to the investigation team relative to the Áras Attracta Home; if these persons are being paid, or are in receipt of expenses; their qualifications and involvement in other programmes operated by the executive in the past; and if he will make a statement on the matter.

Written answers

Minister of State at the Department of Health (Deputy Kathleen Lynch)

As the Deputy's question relates to service matters, I have arranged for the question to be referred to the Health Service Executive (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.
