146 Mr. Belton asked the Minister for Health and Children if he will sanction a speech and language therapist for the senior language unit at St. Joseph's school, Dublin Road, Longford. [13506/99]
The recruitment of speech and language therapists is a matter for the relevant health board, in accordance with employment control ceilings set by my Department. I have asked the chief executive officer of the Midland Health Board to examine the matter and to communicate directly with the Deputy as a matter of urgency.
