275 Deputy Dan Neville asked the Minister for Health and Children her plans for the continued implementation of health promotion campaigns. [35617/08]

Written answers

Minister of State at the Department of Health and Children (Deputy Mary Wallace)

The Deputy's question relates to the funding, management and delivery of health and personal social services, which are the responsibility of the Health Service Executive under the Health Act, 2004. This includes the development and ongoing implementation of health promotion campaigns. Accordingly, my Department has requested the Parliamentary Affairs Division of the Executive to arrange to have a reply issued directly to the Deputy.
