Ms Lucy Nugent:

I am very happy to get the name of that family afterward and look into it for the Deputy. A total of 2,259 children and families were written to regarding this audit. If that family wants their child reviewed, I do not see any reason we could not include her. I will be happy to revert to the Deputy in that regard. Some children have ongoing long-term surgery management in relation to additional comorbidities. That may be the reason. I may defer to my colleague Ms Kelly in that regard to provide further information.
