I propose to take Questions Nos. 411 to 413, inclusive, and 415 to 418, inclusive, together.

The Deputy's questions relate to service delivery matters and accordingly I have asked the HSE to respond directly to him.

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.
