Minister for Health

As this is a service matter, it has been referred to the Health Service Executive for direct reply to the Deputy. If the Deputy does not receive a reply from the HSE within 15 working days I ask her to please contact my Private Office and it will follow up the matter with the HSE.

Question No. 459 answered with Question No. 449.
