The overall number (WTE excluding career break) of audiologists in the public health service at 31 January 2013 was:

Audiological Scientist3.8
Audiological Scientist, Senior6
Audiologist16.75

In relation to the breakdown between adult and paediatric audiology services requested by the Deputy, I have asked the HSE to respond directly to him with this information.
