Frank Feighan (Roscommon-South Leitrim, Fine Gael)

Will the Minister elaborate on the letter regarding the safety of Roscommon hospital?

Does he have any control over HIQA? It seems to be determining what happens in our hospitals and health system throughout the country? As politicians, we give commitments on safety. We also make commitments prior to elections and I ask the Minister what role he has to play in response to HIQA.
