The HSE has confirmed that the number of children who died in State Care since the year 2000 is 188. I wish to advise the Deputy that due to industrial action in the public service by members of IMPACT, the HSE is not in a position to provide a response to the remaining portion of this Parliamentary Question within the normal timeframe.
