Question:
To ask the Minister of Health to detail the number of patients who have received treatment relating to facial palsy from the South Eastern Health and Social Care Trust Plastics Service in the last year are currently awaiting a follow up appointment, broken down by length of time they have been awaiting this appointment.

Answer:

The South Eastern Health and Social Care Trust have advised that they are 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.
