Minister for Health (Deputy Stephen Donnelly)

I propose to take Questions Nos. 315 and 318 together.

The total budget allocation for the Department of Health (Vote 38) for each of the years 2017 to 2021 is available in the Revised Estimates for the Public Service, at: www.gov.ie/en/collection/e20037-revised-estimates/

As my Department neither allocates nor reports on health expenditure on a per capita basis, I am unable to provide the Deputy the breakdown requested.
