As the Deputy was advised, by letter from my Department on the 14 August, I was informed that the matter of the external clinical review of complex spinal surgeries carried out in Temple Street between October 2019 and October 2022 on a specific group of children with spina bifida was raised with the Taoiseach in the Dáil on the 5th of July.
