Dáil Éireann Debate, Thursday - 6 February 2014
183. Deputy Billy Kelleher asked the Minister for Health if he has met the officials involved in the latest reports in Midland Regional Hospital, Portlaoise; and if he will make a statement on the matter. [5917/14]
Amharc ar fhreagraI have not met with hospital officials in relation to issues which have arisen at the Midland Regional Hospital, Portlaoise. However, the Deputy will be aware that I have asked the Chief Medical Officer to provide me with a report on the issues pertaining to the deaths of infants at Portlaoise. Pending finalisation of that report, I am not in a position to make any further comments in the matter. The CMO's report will be completed as expeditiously as possible.
