Ceist:440 Mr. McGuinness asked the Minister for Health and Children if an appeal application for a medical card will be expedited for a person (details supplied) in County Kilkenny. [24968/03]
Written Answers. - Medical Cards.
Responsibility for the provision of a medical card is, by legislation, a matter for the chief executive officer of the relevant health board/authority. My Department has therefore asked the chief execu tive officer of the South Eastern Health Board to investigate the matter raised by the Deputy and to reply to him directly.
