This issue has been previously raised in a similar PQ earlier this year by the Deputy. The individual was advised of the response received by the HSE in relation to her specific case and was also advised that if she considered a criminal offence was committed against her while she was a patient, then it was open to her to make a complaint to An Garda Síochána for investigation. I understand that she has since been in touch with them. As Minister I am always happy to meet with individuals, but in this instance it may be more appropriate for contacts to continue with the HSE and the Gardaí.
