Mr. O'Malley
I am not satisfied that the number of medical beds in the County Hospital, Mallow would require the services of a wholetime medical registrar. I am, however, taking up with the Cork Health Authority the possibility of a staffing arrangement between the County Hospital, Mallow and St. Finbarr's Hospital, Cork which would enable appropriate relief to be provided for the county physician at Mallow.
