Vol. 566 No. 3

Written Answers. - Medical Cards.

John McGuinness

Ceist:

312 Mr. McGuinness asked the Minister for Health and Children if a medical card will be issued on medical grounds to a person (details supplied) in County Kilkenny; and if a response will be forthcoming from the SEHB in this regard. [12668/03]

Responsibility for the provision of a medical card is, by legislation, a matter for the chief executive officer of the relevant health board or authority. My Department has therefore asked the chief executive officer of the South-Eastern Health Board to investigate the matter raised by the Deputy and to reply directly to him.
