Vol. 501 No. 4
91 Mr. O'Shea asked the Minister for Health and Children the proposals, if any, he has to cater for the welfare and overall living needs of a person (details supplied) in Waterford; and if he will make a statement on the matter. [6347/99]
As the Deputy will be aware, the provision of ser vices for persons with a mental handicap in the Waterford region is the responsibility of the South-Eastern Health Board. As it would not be appropriate to provide the information sought by the Deputy in relation to the individual concerned by way of a parliamentary question, I have asked the health board to examine this matter and to respond directly to the Deputy.
