Dublin Fire Brigade (DFB) provides emergency ambulance services in Dublin city and county, by arrangement between Dublin City Council and the HSE. The HSE National Ambulance Service provides some emergency capacity in the greater Dublin area, as well as non-emergency patient transport.

I am not aware of any plans the HSE has to withdraw DFB ambulance services in north County Dublin, I have therefore asked the HSE to respond to the Deputy directly regarding this issue.
