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. Accordingly, my Department has requested the Parliamentary Affairs Division of the Executive to arrange to have this matter investigated and to have a reply issued directly to the Deputy.

The management and provision of health and personal social services including the service referred to by the Deputy under the Health Act, 2004 is the statutory responsibility of the Health Service Executive. I have therefore forwarded the Deputy's question to the Parliamentary Affairs Division of the Executive and asked them to investigate the matter and to reply to the Deputy directly.
