As the Deputy will be aware, the provision of health services in the Kilkenny area is the responsibility of the South Eastern Health Board. My Department has therefore asked the chief executive officer of the South Eastern Health Board to investigate the matter raised and reply direct to the Deputy as a matter of urgency.
