Kilkenny Councillor will ask HSE for full and open discussion on waiting lists today

A Kilkenny Councillor will ask the HSE this afternoon for a full and open discussion on waiting lists.

Joe Malone is bringing forward a notice of motion to this afternoons Health Forum in Cork in light of a recent Prime Time programme which focused on those waiting on operations including young children for scoliosis treatment.

Councillor Malone, who is one of the Kilkenny representatives on the forum, says he was very upset after the programme – describing the content as ‘shocking’.

He says he will be looking for answers.
