Jerry Cowley (Mayo, Independent)

I seek the adjournment of the Dáil under Standing Order 31 to address a matter of major national and local importance, namely, the Government's failure to establish an ambulance base in the Mulranny, Achill and Ballycroy areas of County Mayo in keeping with the most basic international standards of emergency ambulance availability, namely, to have an ambulance base available within 20 minutes of a population, so that people's lives might no longer be placed in jeopardy because of ambulance delays caused by the lack of such an essential base for the area.
