Written Answers. - Occupational Therapy Services.

Michael Ring

Question:

174 Mr. Ring asked the Minister for Health and Children the length of the waiting list in County Mayo for persons waiting to be seen by an occupational therapist. [32292/01]

Responsibility for the provision of the services to which the Deputy is referring rests with the Western Health Board. My Department has, therefore, asked the chief executive officer at the board to look into this matter and reply directly to the Deputy as a matter of urgency.

Question:

175 Mr. Ring asked the Minister for Health and Children when a person (details supplied) in County Galway will be assessed by the occupational therapist in regard to obtaining a wheelchair. [32293/01]

As the Deputy is aware, the provision of health services in the Galway area is, in the first instance, the responsibility of the Western Health Board. My Department has requested that the chief executive officer of the board investigate this particular case and reply direct to the Deputy as a matter of urgency.
