5.

asked the Minister for Health the total yield in the present year from (a) hospital maintenance charges imposed on Health Act patients, (b) charges for specialist services, and (c) charges for X-rays.

I assume that the information requested relates to persons receiving institutional and specialist services in pursuance of the provisions of Section 15 of the Health Act, 1953.

(a) Charges for maintenance and treatment in institutions

£323,000
