Vol. 544 No. 3
294 Mr. Ring asked the Minister for Health and Children if he will ensure an outdoor temporary water closet is provided for a person (details supplied) in County Mayo for the winter months while more permanent works are being carried out. [28518/01]
295 Mr. Ring asked the Minister for Health and Children when works will be carried out for a person (details supplied) in County Mayo by the Western Health Board. [28519/01]
I propose to take Questions Nos. 294 and 295 together.
As the Deputy is aware, the special housing aid scheme for the elderly in the Ballina area is administered by the Western Health Board on behalf of the Department of the Environment and Local Government. My Department has asked the chief executive officer of the board to investigate this particular case and reply to the Deputy as a matter of urgency.
