I thank the Deputy. If she provides me with the details I will look into the matter and revert to the Department and the HSE in respect of it. What I would say to those who are managing diabetes is that there is ongoing significant and important investment. We are all aware that is one of the chronic disease management pathways in respect of which GPs are being supported. We are investing this year in creating a diabetes patient register. The Deputy will be aware that we are rolling out a new service for gestational diabetes. She should rest assured that diabetes, as a chronic condition, is something in which the State is investing significantly in order to support patients managing at home. If the Deputy provides the details relating to the case in question, I will revert to her directly.
