Simon Coveney (FG), Cork South-Central

Of course I am aware of the tragic death of a 16-year-old in Limerick accident and emergency on 29 January. I express my sincere condolences to the family at what is a very tragic time. The HSE has carried out a preliminary assessment in accordance with its policy and procedure. The outcome of full HSE assessment is awaited. I cannot really comment further, as I think the Deputy will understand, until that work is completed. On the more general point, we accept that there is work to do in terms of supporting UHL in the context of the pressure it has been under.
