231 Mr. N. O'Keeffe asked the Minister for Health and Children if arrangements will be made to have specialised equipment made available to a person (details supplied) in County Cork. [14942/02]
The provision of technical aids and appliances to people with physical and sensory disabilities is a matter for the Eastern Regional Health Authority and the health boards in the first instance. Accordingly, the Deputy's question has been referred to the chief executive officer of the Southern Health Board, with a request that he examine the matter and reply directly to the Deputy, as a matter of urgency.
