Question from Deputy Aengus Ó Snodaigh - PQ 24185-26

To ask the Minister for Health the reason young children under the age of two years-of-age in the Dublin 12 area do not have the same public health nurse development check-in as neighbouring more affluent postal codes; the reason for the differences; the steps being taken to address this ongoing shortage of public health nurses in the Dublin 12 area; and if she will make a statement on the matter.
