Minister of State at the Department of Health

I propose to take Questions Nos. 794, 864 and 867 together.

As these are service matters, they have been referred to the Health Service Executive for direct reply to the Deputy. If you have not received a reply from the HSE within 15 working days please contact my Private Office and they will follow up the matter with them.
