, Limerick East): As the provision of medical treatment to eligible persons in County Westmeath is the statutory responsibility of the Midland Health Board in the first instance, I have asked the chief executive officer of the Midland Health Board to investigate the position in relation to this case and to reply to the Deputy directly as a matter of urgency.
