Operational responsibility for the management and delivery of health and personal social services was assigned to the Health Service Executive under the Health Act 2004. Therefore, the Executive is the appropriate body to consider the particular case raised by the Deputy. The Department has requested the Parliamentary Affairs Division of the Executive to arrange to have the matter investigated and to have a reply issued directly to the Deputy.

The Deputy raised a question regarding the same case in September. At that time I advised that the matter had been referred to the Parliamentary Affairs Division of the Health Service Executive (HSE) for direct reply to the Deputy, as the question related to the management and delivery of health and personal services, which are the responsibility of the Health Service Executive under the Health Act 2004.

I understand that the HSE replied to the Deputy on 23rd September last. However, I have requested the Parliamentary Affairs Division of the Executive to provide a further update directly to the Deputy.

Therefore, the Executive is the appropriate body to consider the particular case raised by the Deputy. My Department has requested the Parliamentary Affairs Division of the Executive to arrange to have the matter investigated and to have a reply issued directly to the Deputy.
