Dáil Éireann Debate, Thursday - 24 June 2004
133 Mr. McGuinness asked the Minister for Health and Children if a medical card will be granted to a person (details supplied) in County Kilkenny on medical grounds; and if he will expedite a decision in the case. [18939/04]
Amharc ar fhreagraResponsibility 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 South Eastern Health Board to investigate the matter raised by the Deputy and to reply to him directly.
