Vol. 536 No. 5
209 Mr. P. Carey asked the Minister for Health and Children if the income ceiling for eligibility for the mobility allowance has been increased; and if the amount which a person (details supplied) in Dublin 11 is receiving is accurate even though it is lower than that of which she had previously been in receipt. [14746/01]
The assessment of entitlement to and payment of the mobility allowance, including the assessment of means, in any individual case is a matter for the relevant health board. Accordingly, the Deputy's question has been referred to the chief executive officer of the Eastern Regional Health Authority, with a request that he examine the query and reply directly to the Deputy as a matter of urgency.
