198 Mr. Stagg asked the Minister for Health and Children if he will ensure that the required accessories will be provided to a person (details supplied) in County Kildare; and if he will make a statement on the matter. [31515/01]
The provision of health related support services, including technical aids and appliances, to people with physical and sensory disabilities is a matter for the Eastern Regional Health Authority and the health boards in the first instance. 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 matter and reply directly to you, as a matter of urgency.
