Committee on Public Petitions

Public Petition on St. Brigid’s Hospital, Carrick-on-Suir: Save St. Brigid’s Action Group

Mr. Barry Torpey:

That is it; that is the smoking gun. There was a follow-up radio interview by the chief officer of the community healthcare area with Councillor Dunne the following day. There was a little more expansion on that. As it simply did not measure up, I wrote to the HSE directly and I asked 14 specific questions. If someone says to me that there is a narrow hallway, I want to know what it measures. Is it supposed to be 6 ft., 5 ft. or 4 ft.? So I asked what it was supposed to be; was there a particular area of the hallway that was narrow? Was it just where there was a door? Was it the whole hallway? None of this information-----
