As the Deputy's question relates to service matters, I have arranged for the question to be referred to the Health Service Executive for direct reply to the Deputy. If you have not received a reply from the HSE within 15 working days please contact my Private Office and they will follow up the matter with them.

I met with the Irish Osteoporosis Society (IOS) on Monday 23 February 2015. This was a very constructive meeting and the IOS are now in communication with the HSE and the Department of Health.
