Johnny Guirke

Ceist:

1328. Deputy Johnny Guirke asked the Minister for Health the average wait time for North-East Doctor On Call, NEDOC, in Meath to attend to a patient in view of the fact that parents in south County Meath seeking a doctor-on-call service for ill children have been referred to as far away as Castleblaney, County Monaghan, 85 kilometres away, due to the lack of capacity in the NEDOC service in Meath; and if he will make a statement on the matter.

I propose to take Questions Nos. 1328 and 1330 together.

As this is a service matter, I have asked the Health Service Executive to respond to the Deputy directly, as soon as possible.
