Mr. Donnellan
I made an Order abolishing Ardrahan dispensary district on 17th April, 1963, following receipt and full consideration of proposals to this effect received from Galway County Council which had been unanimously approved by the council at its meeting of 19th October, 1962. My decision was taken after full deliberation and is not one which I could lightly set aside.
I considered the matter fully again when I received the resolution passed by Galway County Council on 25th January, 1964, requesting me to revoke the Order. As a result of this reconsideration, I am satisfied that the case for the abolition of Ardrahan dispensary district was sound and reasonable and that my previous decision in the matter should stand. I propose to inform the Galway County Council accordingly.
Mr. Donnellan
It will be poor information for them.
