340 Mr. McGuinness asked the Minister for Health and Children if the South Eastern Health Board will issue a medical card to a person (details supplied) in County Kilkenny. [7644/01]
The granting of a medical card is, by legislation, the responsibility of the chief executive officer of the relevant health board.
