Question:

325 Ms Shortall asked the Minister for Health and Children if he will provide funding to an organisation (details supplied) in County Meath in view of the fact that it is a national organisation; and if he will make a statement on the matter. [23937/98]

Minister for Health and Children (Mr. Cowen)

In view of the complex nature of the issues addressed by the organisation concerned I feel it would be best if it were, in the first instance, to meet with officers of my Department. I have asked that such a meeting be arranged as soon as possible.
