175 Mr. Durkan asked the Minister for Health and Children the plans, if any, he has for the provision of a respite care unit in Maynooth, County Kildare; and if he will make a statement on the matter. [6643/00]
As the Deputy may be aware, the provision of health services in County Kildare is the responsibility of the Eastern Regional Health Authority. I have asked the chief executive officer of the authority to examine this issue and respond directly to the Deputy as a matter of urgency.
