762. To ask the Minister for Health when the consultation process being conducted by his Department in respect of the delivery of clinical services at the Midlands Regional Hospital, Portlaoise, will commence; the person chairing this process; when meetings with local clinicians and the community will take place; the timeline for the conclusion of this process; and if he will make a statement on the matter.

It remains the case, as outlined at my meeting with you and the other Laois Oireachtas members in December 2017, that no decision has been made yet on the draft Action Plan for Portlaoise Hospital. I have asked my Department to conduct a consultation process in this regard involving local clinicians and the community and this is currently under consideration.
