Vol. 519 No. 2

Written Answers. - Comhairle na nOispidéal.

Bernard Allen

Question:

225 Mr. Allen asked the Minister for Health and Children if he will make a statement on recent allegations that his Department has been interfering with the democratic functions of Comhairle na nOispidéal where the Department is only submitting applications to Comhairle after they have been approved and that this procedure is in breach of the terms of the Health Act, 1970. [13604/00]

The Department of Health and Children does not submit any applications to Comhairle na nOspidéal. Health boards and voluntary hospitals submit applications to Comhairle na nOspidéal after the funding for such posts has been sanctioned by the Department of Health and Children.
