Fergus O'Dowd (Louth, Fine Gael)

I seek the immediate adjournment of the Dáil to discuss an issue of national importance, namely, the urgent need to resolve the serious crisis in the accident and emergency unit in Our Lady of Lourdes Hospital, Drogheda, where one quarter of all medical admissions spend their entire hospital stay in the accident and emergency unit; and the need to proceed immediately and without further delay with the new accident and emergency unit.
