Question:

177 Ms McManus asked the Minister for Health and Children if, in view of research showing financial hardship to parents of long-stay and repeatedly hospitalised children, he plans to make arrangements for free car parking for those parents when visiting their sick children in hospital; and if he will make a statement on the matter.

Written answers

Responsibility for the provision of health services for children rests with the Eastern Regional Health Authority or the appropriate regional health board. My Department has, therefore, asked the regional chief executive of the authority and the chief executive officers of the health boards to investigate the arrangements for car parking facilities for the parents of long-stay patients and to reply to the Deputy directly.
