894. To ask the Minister for Health if his attention has been drawn to the significant number of children on the waiting list for speech and language therapy in Dublin west; that due to the number of referrals received and the very limited resources there is presently a long delay in reviewing referrals; the steps he will take to resolve the problem; and if he will make a statement on the matter.

As the Deputy's question relates to service issues and as the information on waiting times for such therapy services is not routinely returned to my Department by the HSE, I have asked the HSE to respond directly to the Deputy in these matters.
