Dáil Éireann Debate, Tuesday - 13 March 2012
609 Deputy Clare Daly asked the Minister for Health if he will commit that there will be no reduction in service, level of care, number of staff or beds in St. Joseph’s, Ardee, County Louth, in view of the fact that the early retirement scheme has resulted in savings of €250,000, which equates to 10% of the budget and exceeds the 7.7% targeted reduction.

Amharc ar fhreagra610 Deputy Clare Daly asked the Minister for Health the reason County Louth appears to be disproportionately subjected to cuts in older persons’ care, with two out of the 21 homes in DNE requiring special attention coming from County Louth. [14139/12]
Amharc ar fhreagraI propose to take Questions Nos. 609 and 610 together.
As these are service matters they have been referred to the Health Service Executive for direct reply.
