1750. To ask the Minister for Health to review the case of a person (details supplied) who has been waiting for an appointment since June 2024; if, due to the patient’s serious health issues, the appointment will be expedited; and if she will make a statement on the matter. [58291/25]

Under the Health Act 2004, the Health Service Executive (HSE) is required to manage and deliver, or arrange to be delivered on its behalf, health and personal social services. The Minister for Health is prohibited from directing the HSE to provide a treatment or a personal service to any individual or to confer eligibility on any individual.
In relation to the particular query raised, as this is a service matter, I have asked the Health Service Executive to respond to the Deputy directly, as soon as possible.
