Vol. 120 No. 11

Ceisteanna—Questions. Oral Answers. - Dublin Voluntary Hospitals.

andMr. Briscoe asked the Minister for Health if he will state the names of the voluntary hospitals in respect of whose deficits provision was made from the Hospitals' Trust Funds in each of the years 1947, 1948 and 1949, the amount of the deficit, and the number of beds available in the case of each hospital in each of these years.

With the permission of the Leas-Cheann Comhairle, it is proposed to give the reply in the form of a tabular statement, which will be issued with the Official Report.

Following is the statement:—

"VOLUNTARY HOSPITALS in respect of whose deficits provision was made from the Hospitals' Trust Fund in each of the years 1947, 1948 and 1949, the amount of the deficit and the number of beds available in the case of each hospital in each of these years."
