Denis Naughten (Roscommon-South Leitrim, Fine Gael)

I am seeking the adjournment of Dáil Éireann under Standing Order 32 to discuss a matter of urgent importance, namely, the need for the Minister for Health and Children to postpone HSE plans to close Loughloe House long-stay facility in Athlone within the next two months, and to publish any and all available reports associated with the decision, in light of the fact that inadequate consideration has been given to the implications which this closure will have on patients and staff, and the lack of a full evaluation of the HIQA report on the facility.
