Dáil Éireann Debate, Tuesday - 23 March 2004
356 Mr. McGinley asked the Minister for Health and Children if there are plans to extend, refurbish or repair the health centre at Brockagh, Cloghan, County Donegal; and if he will make a statement on the matter. [8514/04]
View answerThe identification, prioritisation and provision of health centres to meet the health and personal social service needs of local communities are matters for the health boards or the Eastern Regional Health Authority. In the case of the new health centre at Brockagh, Cloghan, County Donegal, this responsibility rests with the North Western Health Board.
The board has advised me that a proposal for a new health centre at Brockagh is at an advanced planning stage and that it will shortly be submitting this proposal to my Department for approval. When received, this proposal will be considered by my Department in the context of overall capital priorities for 2004 in line with funding resources available.
