3544. Deputy Carol Nolan asked the Minister for Health if she will urgently intervene to ensure that a person (details supplied) with type one diabetes, who has been placed on the urgent waitlist for a diabetic pump at MRH Mullingar, is provided with the necessary device without further delay, given the clinic’s stated inability to supply a pump due to staffing shortages; and if she will make a statement on the matter.
