I recognise that hospital waiting lists are too long and that many patients including children, are waiting an unacceptably long time for care. I acknowledge the impact this has on patients and their families, and especially the impact on children.

As the particular case raised by the Deputy relates to service issues, I have asked the Health Service Executive to respond to the Deputy directly, as soon as possible.
