There are no new health centres at present under construction in County Wexford. An extension to the existing health centre in Enniscorthy is at present under construction and is expected to be completed shortly. New major health centres are planned for New Ross and Gorey. Work on the health centre at New Ross is expected to start in the near future and work on the health centre at Gorey is expected to start towards the end of the current year. Minor schemes for the provision of health centres at Campile and Kilmuckridge are also being planned by the South Eastern Health Board and the board hopes to be in a position to proceed with their construction next year.
