I informed the Mental Hospital Authority on the 16th March, 1959, that they could proceed with a proposed scheme of improvements to the kitchen at Killarney Mental Hospital. Officers of my Department have since discussed the proposals in detail locally with the Resident Medical Superintendent and the professional Consultants concerned. The submission of revised proposals arising out of this discussion is awaited.
