Michael Ring

Question:

690 Mr. Ring asked the Minister for Health and Children when a person (details supplied) in County Mayo will receive a grant payment for heating under the special housing aid for the elderly scheme from the Western Health Board. [1552/03]

Minister of State at the Department of Health and Children (Mr. Callely)

As the Deputy will be aware, responsibility for the administration of the special housing aid scheme for the elderly in Mayo rests with the Western Health Board. My Department has, therefore, asked the chief executive officer of the board to investigate the matter raised by the Deputy and reply direct to him as a matter of urgency.
