216 Mr. Allen asked the Minister for Health if he has any plans to introduce a programme to improve the health services for the travelling community.
I am initiating a number of measures which are designed to improve the availability of health services to members of the travelling community. Among these measures are the designation of professionals in each health board to co-ordinate the health services for travellers and the provision of mobile health facilities where necessary to ensure better accessibility to services.
