Question 1357: To ask the Minister for Health if he will fill the position of consultant orthopaedic surgeon at Cappagh Hospital, Dublin, which has been vacant since the previous incumbent resigned from the National Injury Services in March 2011, in view of the fact that this reduction in surgical numbers is placing an untenable strain on the medical staff and impacting adversely on vulnerable patients, as the waiting lists extend; and if he will make a statement on the matter.

As this is a service matter, it has been referred to the Health Service Executive for direct reply.
