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 as a matter of urgency and to have a reply issued directly to the Deputy as soon as possible. My officials have also made contact with the HSE services in the area concerned to ask them to look into the case as soon as possible.
