Helen McEntee (FG), Meath East

As the Deputy has rightly acknowledged, there has been significant investment in UHL in recent years, including a 59% increase in funding, a 58% increase in the region overall in the satellite hospitals, as well as a 42% increase in the staff specifically. I do not have the exact details for the oncology area the Deputy mentioned, but of course we want to ensure that investment is going into all elements of the hospital and that anybody who is waiting for appointments or treatment can be addressed. I will ask the Minister to come back to the Deputy directly on the question.
