Vol. 541 No. 2

Written Answers. - Vaccination Programme.

John Perry

Ceist:

438 Mr. Perry asked the Minister for Health and Children if he will make a statement on the submission sent to him on 24 July 2001 regarding a person (details supplied) in County Sligo. [21224/01]

I have recently provided a detailed reply to the Deputy in response to the correspondence to which he refers.

In addition a copy of the file compiled by the Expert Medical Group on Whooping Cough Vaccination which relates to the person referred to by the Deputy has recently been provided to the family's solicitors at their request. The group concluded that as the person referred to by the Deputy did not receive whooping cough vaccine the question of alleged brain damage from the vaccine does not arise.
