I would appreciate if the Minister of State would relay this case to the Minister, Deputy Harris. I appreciate the review is being done but for people such as Neil on the waiting list, a review is of no consolation to them. Review after review is being done right across the board yet no action is being taken. The consultants are telling us they do not have the resources to do the job. We have to ask who is accountable. Can we find one person who is making the decisions? What we see in health all the time is the Minister passing it over to the HSE where it gets lost in the quagmire again and nobody is accountable. Somebody has to be accountable for leaving people like Neil in excruciating pain for months and months on end.

I appreciate the Minister of State coming in here today but I ask her to speak to the senior Minister, Deputy Harris.
