96. To ask the Minister for Health when the programme for Government commitment on the extension of BreastCheck will be honoured; and if he will make a statement on the matter. [36530/14]

As indicated in previous replies, 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 and is being considered in the context of the Estimates process for 2015.
