Niall Collins
Question:1078. Deputy Niall Collins asked the Minister for Health his plans to ensure that children with diabetes get the medical support they require at University Hospital Limerick; if he is aware that there have been a number of cancelled clinics at the hospital and that this has been accompanied by indefinite postponement of access to an insulin pump, and that the endocrinologist who provides the service has recently had to take emergency medical leave; that the hospital has failed to provide alternate temporary consultant support, or seemingly to make any alternate arrangements for emergency cover; that the crucial medical support required by these afflicted children and their families has been, in effect, withdrawn until further notice; and if he will make a statement on the matter.
