Question:

191 Mr. Allen asked the Minister for Health and Children if, further to Parliamentary Question No. 197 of 5 May 1999 and in view of the fact that the chief executive officers of each health board and of the voluntary hospitals have failed to date to supply the information requested, he will now correlate the information himself and make it available. [13767/99]

Minister for Health and Children (Mr. Cowen)

My Department has requested the chief executive officers of the health boards and voluntary hospitals to provide the information requested. However, I am arranging to contact the chief executive officers to have the matter dealt with as expeditiously as possible.
