View answerRadiation oncology services are delivered across three public sites – Galway University Hospital, St. Luke’s Radiation Oncology Network (made up of St. Luke’s Rathgar, Beaumont Hospital and St James’s Hospital) and Cork University Hospital – with two private providers providing this service for public patients in UPMC Whitfield Hospital Waterford and Mid-Western Regional Limerick. As Minister for Health I have no remit over the private radiotherapy services being delivered in Tallaght University Hospital.
