279. Deputy Dara Calleary asked the Minister for Health his plans to have narcolepsy included in the long-term illness scheme. [37032/15]
View answerThe Long Term Illness (LTI) Scheme was established under Section 59(3) of the Health Act, 1970 (as amended). Regulations were made in 1971, 1973 and 1975 specifying the conditions covered by the LTI Scheme.
There are no plans at present to amend these regulations to include narcolepsy.
