445 Mr. Naughten asked the Minister for Health and Children if a medical card will be approved for a person (details supplied) in County Cavan; and if he will make a statement on the matter. [25031/03]
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 executive officer of the North Eastern Health Board to investigate the matter raised by the Deputy and to reply to him directly.
