In relation to the particular query raised, adult and child waiting list information by hospital, specialty, and time band 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.

It should be noted that the NTPF publish information in respect of the length of time that patients on waiting lists have been waiting, and the time to treatment of patients who have received their care is not collected.
