364. To ask the Minister for Health further to Parliamentary Question No. 53 of 14 October 2015, in which the annual cost of providing home care to a person (details supplied) in County Donegal was disclosed, for a breakdown of the costs, including the number of hours of care and the individual expenses; the costs involved if a comparative level of care were provided by staff employed directly by the Health Service Executive rather than by agency staff; and if he will make a statement on the matter.

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