The issue raised by the Deputy was the subject of a Parliamentary Question earlier this year. As indicated in my reply at that time, I have no funds at my disposal to provide for BRI's proposal.

I will ask the Health Service Executive to give further consideration to the matter in the context of current priorities and financial constraints and to provide a direct reply to the Deputy.
