506. To ask the Minister for Health the reason for the delay in the reports into the reasons behind the baby deaths (details supplied) in Portlaoise in County Laois, promised by the Health Service Executive, while a complaint from that same hospital against an independent midwife (details supplied) was processed in August 2014, in which case no mother or baby suffered harm, but the complaint left 29 women without their midwife, when the midwife was suspended by the Health Service Executive.

As these are service matters, I have asked the HSE to respond to the Deputy directly.If the Deputy has not received a reply from the HSE within 15 working days please contact my Private Office and my officials will follow the matter up.
