[491] In some instances, this additional funding reflects the phased development of services. Particularly in the acute hospital sector the funding also reflects the location of national specialities and the planned development of regional services. Funding of £2.948 million is provided in 1999 for the national breast screening programme and this funding was channelled through the North Eastern Health Board. Services will be funded by this programme on a national basis. In relation to the Midland Health Board the £0.400 million provided under clinicians in management includes funding of £0.300 million for the office for health management based in Harcourt Street, Dublin 2.
