162. Deputy John Paul O'Shea asked the Minister for Health further to Parliamentary Question No. 1922 of 4 November 2025, for an update on the proposed enhanced community care facility in Mallow, County Cork; whether the Strategic Healthcare Investment Framework analysis referred to in the response to this Parliamentary Question has been completed; the outcome of that analysis; the services now proposed for the facility; and the current position regarding its location and delivery through a lease model; the expected timeline for a new tender process and the opening of the facility. [67334/26]

As this is a service matter, I have asked the Health Service Executive to respond to the Deputy directly, as soon as possible.
