Written answers

I propose to take Questions Nos. 537 to 540, inclusive, and 543 to 545, inclusive, together.

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

Please note that GPs are private practitioners, most of whom hold at least one contract with the HSE for the provision of medical services on its behalf, such as the GMS contract for the provision of GP services without charge to medical card and GP visit card holders. Accordingly, it may only be possible for the HSE to respond in relation to the number of HSE contracted GPs per Community Healthcare Network.

Question No. 538 answered with Question No. 537.
Question No. 539 answered with Question No. 537.
Question No. 540 answered with Question No. 537.
