Pat Breen

Question:

124 Mr. P. Breen asked the Tánaiste and Minister for Health and Children the reason Ennis General Hospital in County Clare was not included in her fact-finding mission to the mid-west and west regions when she visited Galway and Limerick hospitals, in view that the hospital is overcrowded and has inadequate facilities; if this is an indication that she is less committed to Ennis General Hospital; and if she will make a statement on the matter. [2519/05]

Written answers

Tánaiste and Minister for Health and Children (Ms Harney)

As the Deputy is aware from the reply to his question of 26 January 2005, I intend to meet with the Ennis Hospital development committee in the near future.
