Dáil Éireann Debate, Tuesday - 5 December 2023
550. Deputy Duncan Smith asked the Minister for Health the number of day centres for older persons in County Wexford that are funded by the HSE in 2022 and to-date in 2023; and the capacity of each of these day centres, in tabular form. [53529/23]
View answerAs this is an operational matter, I have asked the Health Service Executive to respond to the Deputy directly, as soon as possible.
As the Deputy may be aware, management and administrative grade staff in the Fórsa union in the HSE commenced industrial action on Friday, 6 October. As a consequence of this industrial action, members in these grades are not engaging with political forums or processes. As a result, the question asked by the Deputy may be delayed in receiving a response directly from the HSE.
