Ceist:

350 Mr. Naughten asked the Minister for Health and Children the reason a person (details supplied) in County Roscommon has not been called for a MRI scan and lumbar puncture at Temple Street Hospital, Dublin; and if he will make a statement on the matter. [22415/02]

The provision of services in the case of a person from County Roscommon is the responsibility of the Western Health Board. My Department has asked the chief executive officer of the board to investigate the position on this case and reply to the Deputy directly.
