Question:

266 Mr. Gregory asked the Tánaiste and Minister for Health and Children further to Parliamentary Question No. 387 of 5 October 2004, if, in view of the correspondence (details supplied) which extends from 25 June 2002 to 14 June 2004 from her Department to the person in question, she will have the matter re-examined; and if she will make a statement on the matter. [25102/04]

Written answers

Tánaiste and Minister for Health and Children (Ms Harney)

I regret that, due to an administrative error in my Department, part of my reply to Question No. 387 on 5 October last was incorrect. There has, in fact, been a number of communications between my Department and the persons referred to by the Deputy. However, as I indicated in the previous reply, the clinic in question is privately operated and I have no function in the matter.
