PQ 1130
1130. Deputy Eamon Scanlon asked the Minister for Health if she will ensure that the HSE urgently prioritises a conclusion to the skyclarys (omaveloxolone) reimbursement negotiations, given that it is the only available treatment for Friedreich’s ataxia, which currently can be classed as having an ‘unmet need’ as outlined in the National Rare Disease Strategy 2025-2030; her views on whether the current delay aligns with the "equitable access" promised in the newly launched National Rare Disease Strategy 2025-2030; and if she will make a statement on the matter.
