I propose to take Questions Nos. 246 and 247 together.

The Health Status and Health Utilisation module of the Quarterly National Household Survey is carried out periodically, most recently in 2010. The report from this survey may be accessed on the CSO Website at . Table 3 in the report sets out the percentage of adults who self reported doctor diagnosed health conditions for 21 different health conditions broken down by a number of categories, including region and high level ILO Economic Status. The survey only samples adults (18+) in private households. As highlighted by CSO, some percentages quoted are based on small numbers and should be interpreted with caution.
