Stephen Donnelly has revealed the majority of a €19m fund allocated to cut waiting lists for scoliosis surgeries was spent ‘far more broadly’ by Children’s Health Ireland

Shocking revelation tonight in the Seanad where Minister Donnelly says the majority of the €19m for scoliosis services was spent "far more broadly" by CHI.

CHI promised to eradicate 4 month waits with that money. https://t.co/gtZgwjGcsY
