42. To ask the Minister for Health if he expects the fall in the number of day cases in our hospitals in 2014 to continue in 2015; and if he will make a statement on the matter. [14651/15]

The January 2015 HSE Performance Report sets out that 808,365 day cases were treated in 2014. The HSE National Service Plan 2015 targets a day case activity level of 824,317 in 2015. This is an increase of 15,952 day cases and I expect the HSE to deliver on its Service Plan targets in 2015.
