Vol. 483 No. 2

Written Answers. - Centre for Rare Disorders.

Paul Bradford

Ceist:

40 Mr. Bradford asked the Minister for Health and Children the proposals, if any, he has to establish a centre for rare disorders; and if he will make a statement on the matter. [19795/97]

I understand that the Deputy is referring to disabilities. I have no proposals before me for the establishment of such a centre. There are numerous conditions which give rise to disability. Each has an organisation providing support and services. Most of these organisations also promote research into the particular condition.
