Written Answers. - Heart Surgery Waiting List.

I have had inquiries made of the hospital authorities concerned and I understand that there are 122 people on the waiting list for heart surgery.
The person referred to is not on the waiting list. I understand that she is to see a consultant this week and any decision to have her placed on the waiting list will be based on the consultant's medical opinion.
