Question on Southern Health Board chief executive

Summary

Deputy Allen challenged the transfer of his question about an allegation that the Taoiseach directed the removal of the acting chief executive. The Ceann Comhairle said transfers were a Cabinet matter.

Bernard Allen Mr. Allen Fine Gael

You disallowed a question put by me to the Taoiseach relating to allegations made in Cork by a former acting chief executive officer of the health board that the Taoiseach instructed his removal from the post. I would ask why the Taoiseach has refused to answer that question.

You can put down a question about it some other time.

I put down a question asking the Taoiseach to answer an allegation but the question has been transferred to the Minister for Health.

As I assured Deputy Barry, the Chair has no function in this matter.

It is a matter for the Cabinet to transfer questions. That has always been the position. Deputy Barry knows that, too.
