140. To ask the Minister for Health the reason for the recent occurrence in Tallaght hospital in which 15 persons were waiting on trolleys for a hospital bed, some of them waiting over a day, in view of the fact that HIQA in May 2012 published a report and issued 76 recommendations to end the dangers of overcrowding in all hospitals; and if he will make a statement on the matter.
