I want to ask the Minister for Health if we will see significant improvements in ambulance service provision in 2017. I am particularly interested in my constituency of Roscommon-Galway. Rural Ireland has to be looked at in a different way in terms of ambulance cover. There is a problem with response times. It is not acceptable. The delivery of unrealistic timelines for ambulance response in rural areas has not been tackled and patients are being left waiting.
