835. Deputy Denise Mitchell asked the Minister for Health the number of whole-time equivalent physiotherapists employed in the HSE in Dublin; the number of vacancies in such posts; if she is satisfied there is a satisfactory number of staff to meet the needs of the area in this regard; and if she will make a statement on the matter. [53174/26]

As this is a service matter, I have asked the Health Service Executive to respond to the Deputy as soon as possible.
