I propose to take Questions Nos. 249, 250, 252 and 253 together.

My Department and the Health Service Executive (HSE) engage in consultation with regard to the setting of the national budget for each service area as part of the National Service Plan and Estimates process. The setting of budgets for the type and volume of health and personal social services is completed within the HSE as part of a consultation process between the National Directorate and the relevant clinical programmes and service providers.

In response to the particular query raised, as this is a service matter, I have asked the HSE to respond to you directly.
