Vol. 205 No. 1

Ceisteanna—Questions. Oral Answers. - Cost of Drugs and Medicines.

17.

asked the Minister for Health the cost of drugs and medicines used in each dispensary in the Kildare constituency in the past year.

As the reply is in the form of a tabular statement I propose, a Cheann Comhairle, with your permission, to circulate it with the Official Report. The information is in respect of the year ended 31st March, 1963, the latest date for which the information is available.

The details relate to dispensary districts.There is more than one dispensary in most of the districts but the information is not available in respect of each dispensary.
