Limerick East): The report of the Inspector of Mental Hospitals for the year ending 3 December 1992 which was published recently, outlined, among other matters, the measures which in his opinion needed to be taken in that year to enhance patient care in all psychiatric hospitals and units, including St. Brendan's and St. Brigid's Hospitals.
The inspector's report for 1993, which will be published as soon as possible, will show that substantial improvements took place in that year in both St. Brendan's and St. Brigid's Hospitals, and this progress has been maintained to date.
