Seán Ryan

Question:

182 Mr. S. Ryan asked the Minister for Health and Children if he will report on the availability of a child psychology service for north Dublin in the Swords health centre; the waiting list for this service; and if he will provide an adequate psychology assessment team for the region as a matter of urgency. [28218/01]

Minister for Health and Children (Mr. Martin)

Responsibility for the provision of child psychology services in the Swords area rests with the Eastern Regional Health Authority. My Department has, therefore, asked the chief executive officer to investigate the matter raised by the Deputy and reply to him directly.
