I regret that due to industrial action affecting the Health Service Executive (HSE), it is not possible for the Executive to supply the information requested. As this matter will be of continuing concern to you, I would invite you to raise it with me again in due course. However, I would also recommend that the Deputy inform the family of the individual mentioned that it is open to them to contact their local health office directly, to see if this matter can be progressed through the HSE.
