142. To ask the Minister for Health further to his recent Parliamentary Question responses on his intention to extend the BreastCheck screening programme to 66 - 69 year olds that he will lobby his Cabinet colleagues and get funding for the extension as part of Budget 2015; and if he will make a statement on the matter.

As indicated in the previous reply to the Deputy, I fully support the proposed extension of the BreastCheck screening programme to the 65 - 69 year age cohort. The timing of the implementation of this extension of the service will depend on the availability of resources.
