Noel Ahern

Ceist:

178 Mr. N. Ahern asked the Minister for Health the entitlements of a 60 year old woman (details supplied) in Dublin 9, whose spouse is an old age pensioner, in relation to new dentures, in view of the fact that she was recently refused such dentures and a chiropodist service and she and her spouse are both medical card holders. [13694/97]

As the provision of dental treatment and chiropody services to eligible persons in Dublin 9 are the statutory responsibility of the Eastern Health Board I have asked the chief executive officer of the Eastern Health Board to investigate this case and to reply to the Deputy directly as a matter of urgency.
