115 Mr. Ryan asked the Minister for Health the current position regarding the provision of a new health centre for Swords, County Dublin; and the timescale for the completion of the health centre, given the urgent need therefor.

The provision of a new health centre in Swords, County Dublin is regarded as a priority by my Department and by the Eastern Health Board. I expect that the planning for the centre will be completed by the end of this year and that work on the project will commence in 1993.
