Brendan Corish Minister for Health (Mr. Corish) Labour Party

The question of establishing an orthopaedic unit at Our Lady's Hospital, Manorhamilton, is only one of a number of options being considered by the North Western Health Board for the purpose of providing an orthopaedic service within its own health board area. Until a decision has been reached on where the orthopaedic unit should be located the question of making any changes in the accommodation for medical patients in Manorhamilton Hospital does not arise.
