Vol. 553 No. 2
545 Mr. Wall asked the Minister for Health and Children the position regarding an application by a person (details supplied) in County Kildare for an appointment date at the Eye and Ear Royal Victoria Hospital for a cataract operation; and if he will make a statement on the matter. [13588/02]
Responsibility for the provision of hospital services to residents of Dublin, Kildare and Wicklow rests with the Eastern Regional Health Authority. My Department has, therefore, asked the regional chief executive of the authority to investigate the position in relation to this case and to reply to the Deputy directly.
