607. To ask the Minister for Health the number of primary health care centres completed and operational; the number still pending; when they will come on stream; the extent to which use of existing primary care centres has been reflected in a reduction in patients seeking treatments at accident and emergency units in hospitals in the immediate catchment area; and if he will make a statement on the matter.

As the information requested by the Deputy relates to service issues and is not routinely provided to my Department, I have asked the Health Service Executive to reply directly to the Deputy on these matters. 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.
