341. Deputy Arthur Spring asked the Minister for Health the options available to a person (details supplied) in County Kerry who wishes to enrol in an adaptation course, in order to be considered eligible for a position as a registered child's nurse with the Health Service Executive. [27224/15]

I wish to thank the Deputy for the matter raised.

Given that this is an operational matter, it is appropriate that it should be dealt with by the HSE. I have referred the Deputy's question to the HSE for attention and direct reply.

If you have not received a reply from the HSE within 15 working days, please contact my Private Office and they will follow up the matter with them.
