286 Mr. N. O’Keeffe asked the Minister for Health and Children the position regarding an application for domiciliary allowance which was submitted in January 2007 to the Health Service Executive by a person (details supplied) in County Cork. [11194/07]

The Deputy's question relates to the management and delivery of health and personal services, which are the responsibility of the Health Service Executive under the Health Act 2004. Accordingly, my Department has requested the parliamentary affairs division of the executive to arrange to have this matter investigated and to have a reply issued directly to the Deputy.
