A plan by a health trust to halt daily delivery of meals to older people at home has been criticised by the SDLP's health spokesman. Fearghal McKinney said he understood that the South Eastern Health Trust would instead deliver 14 frozen meals every two weeks because of cutbacks. Eligible people currently receive meals daily and usually around lunchtime. The trust said people would continue to receive a nutritious meal and would benefit from a wider choice of options.
