James Bannon (Longford-Westmeath, Fine Gael)

I wish to seek the adjournment of the Dáil under Standing Order 32 to raise an issue of local and national importance, namely the proposed closure of 50% of the beds at St. Joseph's Care Centre, Longford, which follows on the closure of Loughloe House, Athlone, County Westmeath and is a direct attack on the elderly in the midlands and across the country.
