397 Mr. O'Shea asked the Minister for Health and Children the proposals he has to provide dedicated services for people with stammers in the south east region; and if he will make a statement on the matter. [26473/03]
The provision of health related services for people with physical and-or sensory disabilities is a matter for the Eastern Regional Health Authority and the health boards in the first instance. Accordingly, the Deputy's question has been referred to the chief executive officer of the South Eastern Health Board with a request that he examine the matter and reply directly to the Deputy as a matter of urgency.
