544. Deputy Brian Walsh asked the Minister for Health the number of persons who have availed of addiction services in each Local Health Office area, by addiction service, in 2013; and in 2014; and if he will make a statement on the matter. [35985/15]

As this is a service matter, it has been referred to the Health Service Executive for attention and direct reply to the Deputy.

If the Deputy has not received a reply from the HSE within 15 working days he should contact my Private Office and they will follow up the matter with them.
