As Deputy McGrath said, the hospital is a busy one. He mentioned in his earlier contribution that he hoped it was not being closed down by stealth. There is no question of closing down any hospital of this nature. That will not happen. We do not have the capacity in the system to allow for such things. It is not my intention to close any hospital.
