I have referred the part of the question that relates to the number of adverse incidents to the HSE, for direct reply to the Deputy.

The State Claims Agency (SCA) has a statutory remit to manage personal injury claims on behalf of State Authorities. The SCA has provided me with the information set out below.

This information was extracted from the National Incident Management System (NIMS) and is accurate as of 07/03/2025.

The SCA has two ongoing claims from persons alleging that their unborn baby was wrongfully diagnosed with a condition sufficient to bring them within the scope of the Health Regulation of Termination of Pregnancy Act 2018. It is inappropriate to provide the years of claims, as to do so could have the effect of identifying individual cases.
