[1332] Minister for Health (Mr. Noonan, Limerick East): The information sought by the Deputy is not readily available in my Department. I have asked the Eastern Health Board to collect this information as a matter of urgency following which I will be in touch with the Deputy on the matter.

As the provision of services in any individual case is a matter for the health board concerned, I have asked the chief executive officer of the Eastern Health Board to have the particular case mentioned examined as a matter of urgency and to reply directly to the Deputy.
