asked the Minister for Health if he will state when the new dispensary for north Donnycarney will be opened.

I am informed by the Dublin Board of Assistance that proposals for the medical staffing of the Donnycarney Dispensary will be submitted for my approval within a week.

I can assure the Deputy that there will be no undue delay in the examination of the proposals in my Department and I see no reason why the dispensary should not be opened at an early date.
