[27910/00]
The provision of medical treatment to eligible persons is, in this instance, the statutory responsibility of the South Eastern Health Board. The board has submitted an application for approval of the post of a consultant physician with special interest in endocrinology. This post will be considered in the context of the board's overall priorities and the development funding available for 2001.
