135 Ms Lynch asked the Minister for Health and Children when he intends to appoint the required number of plastic surgeons in the Munster area. [23673/03]
The question of appointing consultant surgeons in Munster is a matter for the Southern Health Board, the Mid-Western Health Board and the South-Eastern Health Board in conjunction with Comhairle na nOspidéal. My Department has asked the chief executive officers of the boards to investigate the matter raised by the Deputy and to reply directly to her.
