Conamara ambulance base
Deputy Farrell called for an ambulance base in Conamara after years of campaigning and delay. The Tánaiste said he would contact the Health Minister and hoped progress could be made.
Teastaíonn otharcharr i gConamara. D'ardaigh mé é seo trí bliana ó shin. Tá chuile dhuine ar aon ghuth maidir leis seo. Tá go leor obair déanta ach tá sé ag tógáil go leor ama otharcharr a fháil do Chonamara. Impím ar an Tánaiste dul i dteagmháil le Feidhmeannacht na Seirbhíse Sláinte mar gheall air seo. The need for an ambulance base in Conamara has been raised many times and there has been a long-running campaign. Everybody is in agreement on that. I raised the matter here for the first time three years ago. Much work has been done but it is taking a lot of time. I ask the Tánaiste to directly contact the HSE to try and get the process speeded up because, as we know, it is so important for the safety of people in Conamara and, of course, ambulance bases save lives.

Beidh mé sásta teagmháil a dhéanamh leis an Aire Sláinte chun an cheist seo a réiteach. Is oth liom a rá go dtógann sé an-chuid ama ar fad - an iomarca ama, uaireanta - chun cuid de na seirbhísí seo a chur i bhfeidhm ach táim sásta caint leis an Aire. Le cúnamh Dé, beimid in ann dul chun cinn a fheiscint.
