I propose to take Questions Nos. 1377 to 1379, inclusive, together.
As the Deputy may be aware, Dublin Fire Brigade (DFB) are the primary emergency ambulance service provider in the Dublin region. Queries in relation to DFB calls in the level of detail requested should be directed to the Minister for Housing, Local Government and Heritage in the first instance.
The HSE National Ambulance Service (NAS) does provide some emergency capacity within the greater Dublin area. Where required, the NAS also provides additional resources from neighbouring counties to address demand in Dublin, and in line with the practice of dynamic deployment ambulances from other parts of the country, which may be travelling to or from a Dublin hospital, may be available to respond to emergency calls in the Dublin area where they are the nearest resource to a patient.
As NAS performance is an operational matter, I have asked the Health Service Executive (HSE) to respond to the Deputy directly with any further information that it might have in regard to ambulance services provided by the NAS in the Dublin area.
