Vol. 293 No. 5

Ceisteanna—Questions. Oral Answers. - Hospital Finances.

24.

asked the Minister for Health if he proposes to make additional finance available to hospitals and health boards to enable them to carry on to the end of this financial year.

I have been reviewing the allocations made to health boards and other health agencies in the light of developments since their allocations for the present year were calculated. The Government have agreed that there should be some increase in these allocations to meet the changed circumstances. A Supplementary Estimate will accordingly be submitted to the House within the next month. In the meantime my Department will be in touch with the agencies involved on the revision of their allocations.
