The Mid-Western Health Board has made a proposal for the development of a dedicated sexual assault treatment unit at Limerick Regional Hospital. The proposal is under consideration by my Department in the context of funding available and competing priorities. Pending the development of a unit at Limerick Regional Hospital, existing arrangements for forensic medical examination by local general practitioners or the sexual assault unit in Cork will continue.
