Dáil Éireann Debate, Thursday - 28 April 2005
117 Caoimhghín Ó Caoláin asked the Tánaiste and Minister for Health and Children if the Health Service Executive will provide as a matter of urgency the necessary care and assistance to a person (details supplied) in Dublin 11 and to their family. [13887/05]
View answerThe Health Act 2004 provided for the Health Service Executive, which was established on 1 January 2005. Under the Act, the executive has the responsibility to manage and deliver, or arrange to be delivered on its behalf, health and personal social services. Accordingly, my Department has requested the chief officer for the executive's eastern regional area to investigate the matter raised and to reply directly to the Deputy.
