197 Dr. Cowley asked the Minister for Health and Children if the deed of transfer in the case of a nursing home (details supplied) in County Mayo has taken place; her views on whether this is taking an extraordinary long time to transfer in view of the fact that this site was approved for transfer from Mayo County Council to the Health Service Executive western area in March 2003; her further views on whether this should take place immediately and provide Ballinrobe town with this long awaited nursing home facility; and if she will make a statement on the matter.
