O’Keeffe asked the Minister for Health and Children if she will investigate an application for home help where the person (details supplied) in County Cork is only prepared to allow their daughter carry out home help duties; and if she will make a special exception in this case as this person has just been discharged from hospital.

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. 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.
