I am not yet in a position to announce this as the state of planning for the unit does not yet permit of it.
The Minister for Health will note that on today's Order Paper there are questions about inadequate hospital accommodation in different areas. Similar questions appeared on previous Order Papers. Will he tell the House something about the general hospital building programme for the country as a whole?
Question No. 2 relates specifically to the Nenagh hospital and it would not be in order to extend it on a national basis.
