Written Answers. - Drug Treatment Services.
The provision of drug treatment services is the statutory responsibility of the health boards. However, I am informed by the Eastern Regional Health Authority that it has raised the matter with the South Western Area Health Board which has advised that there are no immediate plans to introduce a methadone clinic into the Meath Hospital.
