Amharc ar fhreagraUnder the Health Act 2004, the Health Service Executive (HSE) is required to manage and deliver, or arrange to be delivered on its behalf, health and personal social services. Section 6 of the HSE Governance Act 2013 bars the Minister for Health from directing the HSE to provide a treatment or a personal service to any individual or to confer eligibility on any individual.
The National Waiting List Management Policy, a standardised approach to managing scheduled care treatment for inpatient, day case and planned procedures, January 2014, has been developed to ensure that all administrative, managerial and clinical staff follow an agreed national minimum standard for the management and administration of waiting lists for scheduled care. This policy, which has been adopted by the HSE, sets out the processes that hospitals are to implement to manage waiting lists.
In relation to the particular query raised, as this is a service matter, I have asked the HSE to respond to the Deputy directly.

194. Deputy Thomas P. Broughan asked the Minister for Health the timeframe for free general practitioner visits to be extended to all children under 12 years of age; and if he will make a statement on the matter. [13394/18]
Amharc ar fhreagraThe Programme for Government commits to extend in phases, and subject to negotiation with GPs, free GP care to all children under 18 years of age.
The Deputy will also be aware that the Sláintecare Report recommends a decisive shift towards community based care and an expansion of GP services on a phased basis. Work on an Implementation Plan for Sláintecare is at an advanced stage in my Department and I expect to bring this to Government for consideration shortly.
