View answerCapital funding for the health service is now largely provided through the Health Service Executive in line with the capital investment framework 2005-09. This amounts to €564 million in 2005. I am awaiting further clarification from the HSE of certain non-capital funding issues. The provision of the additional 19 beds at Wexford General Hospital will be considered in this context.
