Written answers

Minister for Public Expenditure and Reform

I propose to take Questions Nos. 448 and 449 together.

I wish to advise the Deputy that this is a matter for the Department of Health rather than my Department and should be the subject of a separate question to my colleague, the Minister for Health, in that regard.

Question No. 449 answered with Question No. 448.
