To ask the Minister for Health further to Parliamentary Question No. 147 of 16 November 2017, when a reply will issue from the HSE to Parliamentary Question No. 650 of 26 July 2017 in view of the fact that a reply to Parliamentary Question No. 803 of 26 July 2017 was received on 8 August 2017.

I can advise the Deputy that I responded to her question, 850, regarding maternal deaths on 26 July 2017. At the same time I referred question 650 to the HSE for response, which was issued directly to the Deputy on 8 August 2017, a copy of which has been provided to the Deputy.

As you will be aware, since December 2015, each of the 19 Maternity Units in the country are obliged to publish a Maternity Patient Safety Statements with 17 indicators on each report. These monthly reports are published on the HSE website: www.hse.ie/eng/services/list/3/maternity/MPSS/.

With regard to annual maternity statistics, these are published in the Irish Maternity Indicator System (IMIS) National Report and can be found on the HSE website.
