286 Mr. Allen asked the Minister for Health the reason he has not acceded to a request from the Southern Health Board to meet a delegation of Oireachtas Members of the board as well as the chairman and chief executive officer.
As the Deputy will be aware, I recently met the chairman, the deputy chairman, and chief executive officer of the Southern Health Board. We spent a considerable amount of time discussing the entire range of the board's operations. Under these circumstances I do not see the necessity to receive a further delegation along the lines suggested by the Deputy at this time.
