The information requested by the Deputy regarding the number of patients waiting for a paediatric rheumatology appointment or procedure by timeband is publicly available on the website of the National Treatment Purchase Fund, www.ntpf.ie.

Waiting times for private hospital appointments and procedures are not a matter for the Department of Health.
