Joint Oireachtas Committee on Health

Quarterly Meeting on Health Issues

Mr. Liam Woods:

In response to Senator Byrne regarding the blood clinic in Dooradoyle, I will come back to the Senator directly or through the committee with an answer, and I will ask the groups to look at that. She asked whether five beds disappeared and the answer is they definitely did not. As the Minister said, there is now funding available through the NTPF to open all beds, so there are patients moving from Dooradoyle.
