Question:

180 Mr. Perry asked the Minister for Health and Children when the retired nurses in the North-Western Health Board will receive their pay parity which was agreed in December 1997, in view of the fact that the Western Health Board made payments in January 1998. [5411/98]

Minister for Health and Children (Mr. Cowen)

I understand from the North-Western Health Board that retired nursing staff in its area will receive the arrears due to them in their March pension cheques.
