Minister for Health

In my reply to the Deputy’s question 714 of 31 May, I advised that the HSE had indicated that the majority of the information provided by it in its direct response of 5 May related to non-cardiac-related patient cases. I have asked the Health Service Executive to respond to the Deputy directly in the matter with any further details it may have, as soon as possible.
