Dáil Éireann Debate, Wednesday - 14 July 2021
380. Deputy Martin Browne asked the Minister for Health the progress that has been made in facilitating a meeting with campaigners opposed to the closure of St. Brigid’s Hospital, Carrick-on-Suir, County Tipperary. [31246/21]
Amharc ar fhreagraEarlier this year I met with staff of St. Brigid’s, along with HSE personnel, to explain in detail the rationale for the repurposing of the St. Brigid’s facility. I have also met with the HSE recently and on 4 June I met with representatives of the Carrick-on-Suir Municipal District to clarify the agreed plans for the future of the facility. I have no plans to have further meetings at present, however I trust the Deputy will understand the practical restraints on my diary at the moment.
