In relation to the particular query raised, adult and child waiting list information by hospital and specialty is published monthly by the National Treatment Purchase Fund (NTPF) on its website: www.ntpf.ie/home/nwld.htm

The information is now being made available through an interactive visual tool which provides users with a much-improved way of accessing and analysing waiting list information.

Since 1st January 2019, NTPF data from Our Lady's Children's Hospital Crumlin, Temple Street Children's University Hospital and National Children's Hospital at Tallaght University Hospital have been reported as one entity, Children's Health Ireland.
