19 Mr. Allen asked the Minister for Health if he will give a full guarantee regarding the future of the St. Mary's Orthopaedic Hospital in Cork city.
147 Mr. Barry asked the Minister for Health whether there is any basis to the media reports (details supplied) that St. Mary's Orthopaedic Hospital, Gurranabraher, Cork was earmarked for closure; and if he will make a statement on the matter.
I propose to take Questions Nos. 19 and 147 together.
As the Deputies are aware, the provision and organisation of services at St. Mary's Orthopaedic Hospital, Gurranabraher is a matter in the first instance for the Southern Health Board.
