To ask the Minister for Health if the practice will be examined by which general practitioners in the HSE mid-west region are responsible for the financial cost of disposing of clinical waste such as needles, syringes and used PPE while this cost is not borne by general practitioners in other HSE regions (details supplied); if the matter will be corrected in order to cover the cost incurred by general practitioners in the mid-west; and if he will make a statement on the matter.
