42 Mr. J. Mitchell asked the Minister for Health and Children the discussions he has had with the Department of Finance on the funding of the health services. [12600/02]
The future funding requirements of the health services will be, as is normal, the subject of discussions in terms of the annual Estimates process. The health strategy, Quality and Fairness – A Health System for You, sets out a programme of investment and reform that will stretch over the next decade. The recommendations as set out in the strategy have been accepted by the Government.
