Joe Sherlock (Cork East, Labour)

I seek the adjournment of the Dáil under Standing Order 31 to raise a matter of national importance, namely, the need for the Minister for Health and Children to ensure that the Health Service Executive, as the body responsible for the delivery of health services, is adequately funded from the €11 billion provided in the budget and to state clearly the means by which these funds are distributed by the Department of Finance.
