Question 576: To ask the Minister for Health the manner in which he discriminates against children legally resident here who have been born through surrogacy as regards their access to health services including infant screening; and if he will make a statement on the matter. [35469/11]

I wish to reassure the Deputy that all children legally resident in Ireland are entitled to access our health services, including infant screening, regardless of the circumstances of their birth. In the case of children born abroad and subsequently legally resident in Ireland, their parents should contact their local HSE health office to access these services.
