The management of waiting lists generally is a matter for the Health Service Executive and the individual hospital concerned. I have, therefore, referred the Deputy's question to the Executive for direct reply.

The National Treatment Purchase Fund (NTPF) arranges treatment for patients who have been on a surgical waiting list for more than three months. It is open to the person in question, or to anyone acting on their behalf, to contact the Fund directly in relation to their case.
