631. To ask the Minister for Health when the National Treatment Purchase Fund will publish its national waiting list data for September 2013; the reason it remained unpublished as of 20 November 2013 in view of the fact that the August 2013 waiting list data were published three weeks into September; if he will direct that a separate September report be published and that there be no repeat of the situation that arose with regard to July when no separate waiting list data were published for that month; and if he will make a statement on the matter.

The September 2013 NTPF performance report and waiting list datasets were published on 21 November 2013. This was to enable both the NTPF September reports and HSE Performance Report for September 2013 to be published at the same time. Both sets of reports will be published at the same time in future. As indicated to the Deputy on 5 November 2013, the July dataset is in fact available on the website for National Trend Analysis of Waiting Times.
