I propose to take Questions Nos. 371 to 373, inclusive, and 387 to 389, inclusive, together.

As these are service and operational matters, I have asked the Health Service Executive (HSE) to respond to the Deputy directly, as soon as possible.

As this is an operational matter I have asked the Health Service Executive to respond to the Deputy directly. 

As the Deputy may be aware, management and administrative grade staff in the Fórsa union in the HSE commenced industrial action on Friday 6th 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.
