283 Mr. Allen asked the Minister for Health and Children the steps he has taken to introduce a 24 hour CT scanning service in all hospitals receiving trauma victims or acute medical surgical patients. [26966/00]
The provision of services is the statutory responsibility of the health boards. However, I have asked the chief executive officers of each of the health boards and the regional chief executive of the Eastern Regional Health Authority to collate this information and to respond directly to the Deputy as a matter of urgency.
