Written Answers. - Autism Services.

John McGuinness

Question:

230 Mr. McGuinness asked the Minister for Health and Children the services offered by the South Eastern Health Board to those suffering from autism; the amount of money allocated to these services over the past five years; the structure which is in place to allow the Autism Society to work in partnership with the South Eastern Health Board; the number of families in the South Eastern Health Board area who have a family member with autism; if each of these persons has been properly or fully diagnosed; and if he will make a statement on the matter. [15240/00]

The information sought by the Deputy on autism services provided in the South Eastern Health Board region is not readily available to my Department. I have requested the board to compile the information and I will forward it to the Deputy when it becomes available to me.
