St. Raphael's centre provides a different service in that it is a service for patients with different needs. The work done by the HSE in taking people out of the central location and integrating them into Youghal town and the community has been quite successful. Why is that not a possibility in the Midleton area? In regard to communication with the people involved, that needs to be stepped up.

In regard to day care services, what progress has been made in securing a new location for them? I understand it is proposed to retain the day care services in the Midleton area, which I believe is crucial in terms of what is being provided at the Owenacurra centre. Has an alternative location been found?
