The correspondence in question indicated that the writer had received detailed responses to her complaints about the care of her late husband from both the Health Service Executive and the Office of the Ombudsman. I note that the HSE expressed its regret that the correspondent was not satisfied with the care provided to her husband at Waterford Regional Hospital. I would like to extend my own sympathies to the Deputy's constituent on the sad loss of her husband. However I have no role in relation to the investigation of individual complaints about aspects of the public health service, which are the responsibility of the two statutory bodies to which I have referred above.
