I understand the review referred to by the Deputy is the review of public and private ambulance service provision which has been commissioned by the HSE. The purpose of this review is to assess the costs of both public and private ambulance services, ascertain the appropriate use of those services, and define clearly the parameters for use of public and private providers.
I have asked the HSE to respond directly to the Deputy with any further information which might be available.
