Minister for Health and Children (Mr. Martin)

Responsibility for the provision of services at James Connolly Memorial Hospital, Blanchardstown rests with the Eastern Regional Health Authority. My Department has, therefore, asked the regional chief executive of the authority to investigate the matter raised by the Deputy and to reply to him directly.
