I propose to take Questions Nos. 421 and 422 together.

The information requested by the Deputy is not routinely collected by my Department. However, I have asked the chief executive officer of each of the health boards and the regional chief executive of the Eastern Regional Health Authority to collate this information and to respond directly to the Deputy as a matter of urgency.

Question No. 423 taken with Question No. 162.

Question No. 424 taken with Question No. 118.
