The Deputy's question relates to the provision of services at a private clinic attached to the Rotunda Hospital. My Department requested the former Eastern Regional Health Authority, ERHA, to investigate issues relating to the case which had been raised by the Deputy. As the functions of the ERHA have since transferred to the Health Service Executive my Department has now requested its parliamentary affairs division to arrange to have the matter further examined, and to have a reply issued directly to the Deputy.
