Questions (421)

Fergus O'Dowd

Question:

421. Deputy Fergus O'Dowd asked the Minister for Health to seek urgent assistance for a person (details supplied) who is 74 years old and a full-time carer to their spouse who is housebound, and where the person has been referred to neurology on an urgent basis as they are showing symptoms of clinical signs for Parkinson’s; if he will urgently intervene as the person has been informed it may be December 2024 before they are facilitated, which is completely unacceptable; and if he will make a statement on the matter.

As this is an operational matter, I have asked the Health Service Executive to respond to the Deputy directly, as soon as possible.
