Answers to questions on notice

Questions Nos 2722 to 2728

MRS DUNNE: In accordance with standing order 118A, I am seeking an explanation from the Minister for Health as to the reasons why questions on notice No 2722  through to No 2728, which were due for answers on 20 October, have not been answered.

MS STEPHEN-SMITH: I thank Mrs Dunne for following up and I apologise that my office has not been in contact with her office to explain that. As she is aware, I returned from leave yesterday. There are a number of questions on notice that are in my tray that obviously were chosen to be kept for me to respond to rather than an acting minister. I will follow up on those specific question numbers. It may be that one or two of those were sent back for further clarification or information but I will endeavour to get those responses to Mrs Dunne as quickly as possible. Again, I apologise that my office has not provided an explanation to her office in relation to that.

That leave of absence be granted to Mr Barr for today due to illness.
