The holding of night dispensaries in urban areas would be a matter for the appropriate health authorities in the first instance and there are no proposals from such authorities before me at present for the holding of such dispensary sessions.
I would refer to my reply to a Parliamentary Question by Deputy Mullen on the 6th November, 1962, in which I indicated that I would consider the question of the holding of night dispensaries in Dublin when I had received the observations of the Dublin Health Authority on the matter. I understand that the matter is at present under consideration by the Health Authority and that they hope to be in a position to let me have their views shortly.
