The Health Service Executive is undergoing a transformation programme which involves a significant reorganisation of its Directorates including Population Health. As this is a service matter it has been referred to the Health Service Executive for direct reply to the Deputy, to supply the current information in relation to statistics and databases held and services provided by that Directorate.
