The Health Act 2004 provided for the Health Service Executive, which was established on 1 January 2005. Under the Act, the executive has the responsibility to manage and deliver, or arrange to be delivered on its behalf, health and personal social services. As the person referred to by the Deputy resides in County Cork, my Department has requested the chief officer for the executive's southern area to investigate the matter raised and reply directly to the Deputy.
