1669. Deputy Thomas Pringle asked the Minister for Health if a stage 3 review under section 49(1)(b) of Part 9 of the Health Act 2004 should be carried out by the same officer that carried out the initial investigation into a compliant; and if he will make a statement on the matter. [34209/24]

As this is an operational matter, I have referred the question to the HSE for their attention and direct response to the Deputy.
