Vol. 558 No. 3

Written Answers. - Hospital Staffing.

John Bruton

Ceist:

153 Mr. J. Bruton asked the Minister for Health and Children the position in relation to the Hospital Order of St. John of God; if he will allocate additional funding in order that the Order may provide additional staff at the residential units at St. Mary's Drumcar, Dunleer, County Louth; if he will fulfil the initiatives, as set out in the Labour Relation Conciliation Conference held in June 2001; and if he will make a statement on the matter. [24227/02]

The Labour Relation Conciliation Conference was held in June 2002 and not June 2001 as stated by the Deputy.

The Deputy will appreciate that I cannot, at this stage, comment on specific funding for any element of the health services in 2003 prior to the conclusion of the annual budget discussions.
