Rory O'Hanlon (Cavan-Monaghan, Fianna Fail)

What we should do is come together in order to achieve a resolution.

I ask that the Minister for Health and Children request that the Health Service Executive work with elected representatives, those who represent the hospital staff, GPs and patient representatives in order to consider the options that exist in order to ensure that the level and quality of health care will not be compromised. We must ensure that the elderly people to whom I refer will continue to be treated at Monaghan General Hospital.
