Dáil Éireann Debate, Thursday - 2 June 2022
385. Deputy Aengus Ó Snodaigh asked the Minister for Health if the HSE sought additional funding for St. Joseph’s Community Hospital, Stranorlar, County Donegal in order to provide a more secure environment (details supplied); if so, the number of times that additional funding was requested; and the response of the HSE in relation to same. [28669/22]
View answerThe quantum of services to be provided by the HSE is considered as part of the Budgetary and National Service Planning process. The HSE National Service Plan (NSP) for 2022, sets out, at a high level, the health and social care services to be provided within the HSE's allocated budget of €20.7bn.
The HSE manages its expenditure in line with its annual funding determination.
As the Deputy's question relates to the funding of a specific service, I am referring the question to the HSE for a direct reply to the Deputy as soon as possible.
