Ceist:

179 Mr. R. Bruton asked the Minister for Health and Children if funds are available in his Department to establish a community accessible drug related/health promotion library by a group (details supplied) in Dublin 9. [14102/00]

Minister for Health and Children (Mr. Martin):

I propose to take Questions Nos. 178 and 179 together.

A wide range of health promotion materials, including those on drug related matters, is available from each of the regional health boards. The youth groups concerned should, therefore, con tact the health promotion department of the relevant health board for assistance in the matter.
