  352. Mr. McGuinness asked the Minister for Health and Children if the payment of enhanced subvention will be restored in the case of a person (details supplied) in County Kilkenny; if he will investigate the circumstances of the case; and if a response will be expedited. [17175/04]

  Mr. Callely: As the Deputy will be aware, the provision of health services in the Kilkenny area is, in the first instance, the responsibility of the South Eastern Health Board. My Department has, therefore, asked the chief executive of the board to investigate the matter raised by the Deputy and reply direct to him as a matter of urgency.
