Vol. 547 No. 1
543 Mr. Fleming asked the Minister for Health and Children the level of expenditure planned by each of the health boards on services for people with autism in their area in 2002; the expenditure on these services in 2001 and 2000; and if he will make a statement on the matter. [1723/02]
545 Mr. Fleming asked the Minister for Health and Children the number of long-term residential places available to people with autism here; the location of these places; the health board areas from which these residents have come; and the future long-term residential places which will become available. [1725/02]
I propose to take Questions Nos. 543 and 545 together.
The information sought by the Deputy is not readily available. My Department has asked the Eastern Regional Health Authority and the health boards for the relevant information and it will be forwarded to the Deputy when it becomes available.
