405. To ask the Minister for Health his views on the implementation of a system, similar to other countries, whereby alcohol-drug related admissions to accident and emergency departments would be treated outside of the general admissions department which would make the hospital environment a less hostile place for other patients; and if he will consider a pilot testing of this during particularly problematic weekend hours.

In relation to the detailed query raised by the Deputy, as this is a service matter it has been referred to the HSE for direct reply.
