Dáil Éireann Debate, Thursday - 15 February 2024
393. Deputy David Cullinane asked the Minister for Health the number of patients on home support waiting lists for a carer at the end of each month of each year 2019-2023, inclusive; the breakdown by length of wait, in tabular form. [7303/24]
Amharc ar fhreagraAs this is an operational matter, I have asked the Health Service Executive to respond to the Deputy directly, as soon as possible.
As the Deputy may be aware, management and administrative grade staff in the Fórsa union in the HSE commenced industrial action on Friday, 6 October. As a consequence of this industrial action, members in these grades are not engaging with political forums or processes. As a result, the question asked by the Deputy may be delayed in receiving a response directly from the HSE.
