317. To ask the Minister for Health if he will examine the current practice at UHK where patients in the ED are moved on trolleys to wards when the trolley count reaches 20; if he can outline who sanctioned this practice; when it began; what the rationale is for this practice; what impact this is having on patient outcome; and if he will make a statement on the matter.

As this is a service matter, I have asked the HSE to respond to the deputy directly.
