The Minister for Health received representations from a public representative earlier this year on behalf of the named individual. However, as there was insufficient information in the correspondence to allow the Department or the HSE to follow-up on the complaint, the public representative was requested to arrange with the individual for the provision of additional information into the nature of the specific complaint, with dates locations etc. To date, a reply has not been received.
