159. To ask the Minister for Health if he will take all necessary steps to ensure that a person (details supplied) in County Roscommon, and persons in similar circumstances, will have access to an audiology test within a reasonable time frame in order that they may be fitted with a hearing aid; his views that it is entirely unsatisfactory that a person of 98 years of age would be required to wait up to two years for an audiology appointment and the provision of a hearing aid; and if he will make a statement on the matter.

As this is a service matter, I have asked the HSE to respond to you directly. If you have not received a reply from the HSE within 15 working days please contact my Private Office and my officials will follow the matter up.
