185 Mr. Kirk asked the Minister for Health the way in which per capita expenditure on mental health in Ireland compares with other member states of the European Union.
In 1993 the estimated outturn on expenditure in Ireland on the psychiatric services, excluding expenditure in general hospitals and in primary health care, was £209 million.
I regret that comparative statistics on expenditure on mental health in other countries of the European Union are not available.
