Ceist:

148 Mr. Creed asked the Minister for Health and Children if his attention has been drawn to the circumstances of a person (details supplied) in County Cork, when it is envisaged that this person will receive an appointment, and the additional resources which will be made available by his Department to provide for this person's needs. [3042/01]

Minister for Health and Children (Mr. Martin)

As the provision of services to persons with special needs, including orthodontic services, in the Cork region is the responsibility of the Southern Health Board in the first instance, I have forwarded your inquiry to the chief executive officer of the board for investigation and direct reply to you.
