Deputy Thomas Gould asked the Minister for Health if his attention has been drawn to the fact that the Dún Laoghaire-Rathdown drug and alcohol task force is currently without a co-ordinator, despite the HSE having been informed by the task force as long ago as May 2022 that it had opted for a HSE-employed co-ordinator.

Deputy Thomas Gould asked the Minister for Health when the Dún Laoghaire-Rathdown drug and alcohol task force can expect to have in place a HSE-recruited co-ordinator; or, how and when the HSE intend to rectify this situation which is having a critical impact on the efficient running of vital services in the area; and if he will make a statement on the matter.

View answerI propose to take Questions Nos. 276 and 277 together.
As this is a service matter, I have asked the Health Service Executive to respond to the deputy directly, as soon as possible.
