723 Mr. G. Murphy asked the Minister for Health and Children the situation regarding an application for funding on behalf of a group (details supplied) in County Cork; the reason there was a reduction in funding during 2006 for this organisation; and if she will make a statement on the matter. [1521/07]
Amharc ar fhreagraOperational responsibility for the management and delivery of health and personal social services was assigned to the Health Service Executive under the Health Act 2004 and funding for all health services has been provided as part of its overall vote. Therefore, the Executive is the appropriate body to consider the particular case raised by the Deputy. My Department has requested the Parliamentary Affairs Division of the Executive to arrange to have the matter investigated and to have a reply issued directly to the Deputy.
