389. Deputy Arthur Spring asked the Minister for Health the status of a person (details supplied) in County Kerry who was removed from a general practitioners' list and who has unsuccessfully applied to at least three general practitioners in the area who are contracted to provide services under the general medical services.

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