Mr. Aylward
asked the
Minister for Health and Children
the reason a mobility allowance has been refused to a person (details supplied) in Kilkenny who is confined permanently to a wheelchair and is in receipt of invalidity pension from the Department of Social, Community and Family Affairs.
[27054/99]
Minister for Health and Children (Mr. Cowen):
The assessment of entitlement to a mobility allowance in any individual case is a matter for the relevant health board. Accordingly, the Deputy's question has been referred to the chief executive officer, South Eastern Health Board with a request that he examine the query and reply directly to the Deputy as a matter of urgency.
