167 Mr. O'Shea asked the Minister for Health and Children when a medical alert pendant will be supplied to a person (details supplied) in County Waterford; and if he will make a statement on the matter. [15953/99]
As the Deputy may be aware, the supply of medical devices such as medical pendants in County Waterford is, in the first instance, a matter for the South-Eastern Health Board. I have asked the chief executive officer of the board to investigate this matter as a matter of urgency and reply directly to the Deputy.
