Dáil Éireann Debate, Tuesday - 28 April 2026
1037. Deputy Maurice Quinlivan asked the Minister for Health the status of the case of a person (details supplied) who having been referred two years ago for an MRI at University Hospital Limerick as part of their treatment has yet to receive an MRI appointment; and if she will make a statement on the matter. [29786/26]
View answerUnder 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 HSE to respond to the Deputy directly, as soon as possible.
