Vol. 439 No. 1

Written Answers. - Optical Benefit.

Liz McManus

Ceist:

60 Ms McManus asked the Minister for Health if his attention has been drawn to the fact that a person (details supplied) in County Wicklow has not received the optical benefit to which she is entitled from the Eastern Health Board in view of the fact that she applied in December 1993; and if he will ensure that the matter is expedited.

As the provision of ophthalmic treatment for persons with medical card eligibility residing in County Wicklow is the responsibility of the Eastern Health Board I have asked the chief executive officer of the health board to reply to the Deputy in regard to this person's treatment as a matter of urgency.
