View answerResponsibility for the provision of services at Letterkenny General Hospital rests with the North Western Health Board. In July 2003, I gave approval to the board to proceed with the planning of an extension to the accident and emergency department at the hospital. The board is currently in consultation with my Department with a view to progressing this project.
