Vol. 186 No. 5

Ceisteanna—Questions. Oral Answers. - Expenditure on Drugs, Medicine and Appliances.

14.

asked the Minister for Health if he will state in respect of each health authority, for the latest available year, the total amount spent on drugs, medicines, and medical appliances for use in the dispensary service.

As the reply is in the form of a tabular statement, I propose, with your permission, a Cheann Chomhairle, to circulate it with the Official Report.

Following is the statement:
