Hospital Waiting Lists: Statements (9 Feb 2017)

Louise O'Reilly: I will ask the Minister some fairly simple questions. The first relates to the bed capacity review. Can the Minister share the terms of reference with the House?

He has missed 50 days of school. He will never get those...

Hospital Waiting Lists: Statements (9 Feb 2017)

Louise O'Reilly: I would like to refresh the Minister's memory by going back to August 2016 and another Fine Gael five-point plan, a five-point plan to tackle waiting lists.
