Vol. 486 No. 5

Written Answers. - Psychological Service.

Noel Ahern

Ceist:

72 Mr. N. Ahern asked the Minister for Health and Children where a young person under 18 years of age can be referred for residential psychological assessment, in view of the fact he is not on drugs, is not a criminal and his parents have found difficulty in having him placed. [2967/98]

All decisions in relation to a patient's assessment-treatment are a matter for the patient's treating consultant. If the Deputy wishes to give me specific details of the case, I will have the matter investigated with the appropriate service providers.
