As this Parliamentary Question relates to data only available through completion of a detailed analytical exercise, the Deputy is advised that the HSE is currently not in a position to provide such data by closing date for the Parliamentary Question. I am advised that due to the recent cyber-attack, the disruption to service is on-going, and the HSE is working hard to restore its IT capacity and resume normal services.

Members of the Oireachtas will be advised as soon as the HSE is again in a position to provide responses to PQs and are encouraged to resubmit their Parliamentary Questions at that point.
