Question 395: To ask the Minister for Health and Children if, in view of the efficiency achieved by Midland Regional Hospital, Mullingar, over the past couple of years, particularly in relation to its case mix adjustment, it will get tangible recognition for such efficiency, in an additional €1 million which should be allocated into the budget and the 100 plus scheme; if in this context it will be allocated additional consultant posts above and beyond what it would be allocated in any event; and if she will make a statement on the matter.

Funding for health services has been provided as part of the Executive's overall vote for health and personal social services in 2007. In the case raised by the Deputy, the allocation of resources and the income stream within that, is a matter for the Executive to be determined within the overall priorities for particular services set out by me in respect of 2007 funding. Accordingly, my Department has requested the Parliamentary Affairs Division of the Executive to arrange to have the matter investigated and to have a reply issued directly to the Deputy.
