127. To ask the Minister for Health his views on whether patients in public hospitals that are to be treated by consultants not on the Medical Council’s specialist register should be made aware of this fact in advance; and if so, his plans to ensure that such information is provided to patients in public hospitals.

I have asked the HSE to respond to the Deputy directly on this matter. It it established policy that all consultants be on the Medical Council's specialist register. The HSE has been working to ensure that all consultant posts are filled accordingly and to address situations where this is not the case.
