262 Mr. Wall asked the Minister for Health and Children the reasons that a person (details supplied) in Dublin 24 has not been allocated a medical card; and if he will make a statement on the matter. [25707/03]
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 regional chief executive of the Eastern Regional Health Authority to investigate the matter raised by the Deputy and to reply to him directly.
