The Deputy's question relates to the management and delivery of health and personal social services, which are the responsibility of the Health Service Executive under the Health Act 2004. My Department understands that the HSE has been in correspondence with the Deputy in relation to the case mentioned. My Department has, therefore, asked the parliamentary affairs division of the executive to respond to the further issues raised by the Deputy.
