asked the Minister for Health when the new welfare home will be erected in Killybegs, County Donegal.
With the permission of the Ceann Comhairle, I propose to take Questions Nos. 19 and 20 together.
I am not in a position at present to say when welfare homes at these locations may be built. Detailed proposals in this regard have not been submitted to my Department by the board.
Would the Minister agree that welfare homes are badly needed in these two locations?
I believe there is some need, but to what extent I am not aware at present.
