Written answers

Minister for Health

The Deputy might like to note that the NTPF commenced publication of hospital-level waiting list data in April 2015 and that this data will be updated on a monthly basis. As the specific information requested relates to service issues, I have asked the HSE to respond to you directly. If you have not received a reply from the HSE within 15 working days please contact my Private Office and my officials will follow the matter up.
