I understand the necessity of providing a modern, fit-for-purpose health centre on Inishbofin. I had the privilege and pleasure of visiting the island last year. While there, I visited the health centre, which leaves a lot to be desired. Anything my Department can do to convince the HSE or any other entity of the necessity of providing a new centre, it will gladly do it. However, we see it as primarily the responsibility of the HSE. Hopefully progress will be made. As I understand it, the HSE is in the process of purchasing additional land to accommodate a new centre. It is a problem which must resolved and anything my Department can do to help, it will do. We see it, however, as primarily the responsibility of the HSE.
