1538. To ask the Minister for Health further to Parliamentary Question No. 617 of 24 October 2023, to outline the rationale to exclude operations carried out on adults at Cappagh Hospital from the external review. [56692/23]

The independent, overarching external review was commissioned to review the service, including the governance, being provided by the Paediatric Orthopaedic Surgery Service at CHI Temple Street, CHI Crumlin, the National Orthopaedic Hospital, Cappagh and other relevant sites in Dublin. It is my understanding that the review does not include operations carried out on adults as the review is focused on paediatric services.

The final Terms of Reference for the review are available here: www.hse.ie/eng/services/news/newsfeatures/tor-for-review-of-the-paediatric-orthopaedic-surgery-service-at-chi/terms-of-reference-for-the-review-of-paediatric-orthopaedic-surgery-service-at-chi-and-dublin-hospitals.pdf
