I support Deputy McDonald. Basically, in the discussions relating to South Tipperary General Hospital, many of us have argued that the facility has been left as it has. Not alone has it been left in that manner, but the HSE is refusing to use it as a step-down facility for people who are going to emergency theatre and into South Tipperary General Hospital to have procedures. If it is not going to be used as a step-down facility, then what, in the name of God, will it be used for?
