213. To ask the Minister for Health his plans to tackle the number of delayed discharges in hospitals here, which in April stood at 658 nationwide and at 98 in Cork; if he will consider making more home care packages available to help reduce the number of persons waiting in hospital beds; and if he will make a statement on the matter.

In relation to the particular query raised by the Deputy, as this is a service issue, I have asked the Health Service Executive to respond directly to the Deputy in this matter.
