322 Mr. Durkan asked the Minister for Health and Children when physiotherapy, occupational therapy and speech therapy will be offered to a person (details supplied) in County Kildare; and if he will make a statement on the matter. [19520/04]
View answer): The provision of health services, including physiotherapy, occupational therapy and speech and language therapy, to people with a physical and/or sensory disability 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 regional chief executive of the Eastern Regional Health Authority with a request that he examine the matter raised and reply directly to the Deputy as a matter of urgency.
