Ceisteanna—Questions. Oral Answers. - Medical Officer for Moycullen (Galway).
On the 22nd December, 1955, I sanctioned a proposal submitted to me by Galway County Council to fill the post of district medical officer in Moycullen under Section 5 (1) of the Local Authorities (Officers and Employees) Act, 1926, i.e., by transfer. The health authority has now informed me that an appointment has been made and that the medical officer will take up duty on 1st April, 1956.
My sanction to the appointment is not required.
