Mary Harney (Dublin Mid West, Independent)

I do not mean to be smart-ass with Deputy McCormack, and I am not trying to be, but he, among others, lobbied me from Galway to have that cancer research facility included as part of collocation.

Galway city has many private facilities. It has the new Galway Clinic in place in recent years. Besides the logistical issues of the university hospital site he mentioned, capacity from the private sector does not exist.
