Question:
To ask the Minister of Health to detail the number of patients that have received treatment relating to facial palsy from the South Eastern Health and Social Care Trust Plastics Service in the last year.

Answer:

The South Eastern Health and Social Care Trust is not able to provide this information. Treatments relating to facial palsy are not coded as 'facial palsy' and may be used to treat other conditions, therefore it is not possible to extract this specific information accurately.
