Michael Ring

Question:

729 Mr. Ring asked the Minister for Health and Children when a person (details supplied) in County Mayo will receive his new manual wheel chair, which he was fitted for on 20 July 2002. [1893/03]

The provision of technical aids and appliances including wheelchairs to people with physical and sensory disabilities is a matter for the Eastern Regional Health Authority and the health boards in the first instance. Accordingly, the Deputy's question has been referred to the chief Executive Officer, Western Health Board with a request that she examine the matter and reply directly to the Deputy as a matter of urgency.
