It is the Taoiseach's duty to make sure people have a decent health service of quality. I again ask him to visit the aforementioned hospital and, by instructing the Health Service Executive, to ensure the putting in place of additional beds at Our Lady's Hospital, Cashel, and South Tipperary General Hospital, as well as additional consultant, nursing, medical and support staff in the emergency department, because the policies of the Taoiseach and his Government have created a crisis within that department.
