Responsibility for the provision of a medical card and for the granting of domicilary care allowance is, by legislation, a matter for the chief executive officer of the relevant health board or authority. My Department has therefore asked the CEO of the South Eastern Health Board to investigate the matter raised by the Deputy and to reply to him directly.
