Joint Oireachtas Committee on Health and Children

Childhood Obesity: Discussion (Resumed)

11:30 am

Dr. Donal O'Shea:

I am in the process of trying to reinvigorate the process. We sent a letter to transfer the bariatric surgery, in line with all international recommendations, to St. Vincent's Hospital six months ago. The letter went to the Minister and to the special delivery unit asking that they get us going but the question now is whether that waiting list exists. I am not sure where that question is coming from but we are trying to sort that out.
