507. To ask the Minister for Health the officials within the Health Service Executive who sanctioned the Office of Nursing and Midwifery Directorate in the executive in suspending a person (details supplied) with apparently no prior contact with the Nursing and Midwifery Board of Ireland, in view of the fact that the statutory responsibility for all fitness to practice issues lies entirely with the board, and not with the executive.

I propose to take Questions Nos. 507 to 509, inclusive, together.

I wish to thank the Deputy for the matter raised.

The particular case and issues referred to by the Deputy is an operational matter and it is appropriate that it should be dealt with by the HSE. Therefore, I have referred the Deputy’s questions to the HSE for attention and direct reply.

If the Deputy has 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.
