asked the Minister for Health if he proposes making a capital grant to St. Vincent's Hospital, Elm Park, Dublin 4 to allow the expansion of accident and emergency and outpatient facilities to accommodate the ophthalmological services of the Royal Victoria Hospital, Dublin 2; and, if so, the amount of such grant.

My Department has requested details from St. Vincent's Hospital of the capital costs involved in the development of facilities to accommodate the ophthalmological services to be transferred from the Royal Victoria Eye & Ear Hospital.
It is not possible to consider the allocation of a capital grant, therefore, until estimates of the costs involved have been received from the hospital.
