Ceist:

175 Mr. Gregory asked the Minister for Health and Children if he has satisfied himself that the hospitalisation of a person (details supplied) was carried out in accordance with normal practice; and if he will have arrangements made for an explanatory note to be sent to the person concerned. [6284/98]

Minister for Health and Children (Mr. Cowen)

I can confirm that I received a copy of this letter from the person referred to the question. I have asked the inspector of mental hospitals to investigate the matters raised in the letter and a reply will issue directly to the person concerned as soon as the inspector has completed his inquiries.
