Máire Hoctor (Tipperary North, Fianna Fail)

As part of the reconfiguration of acute hospital services in the north east the HSE previously indicated that it plans to transfer acute inpatient services from Monaghan to Cavan and to develop services at Monaghan. The transfer is scheduled to take place later this year. The HSE is working to ensure the necessary capacity is in place prior to or in parallel with the planned transfer date to ensure a smooth and safe transition.
