I presume the Minister will do so at his next opportunity.

I also humbly suggest that if smaller hospitals were funded, it would help relieve the bigger hospitals' waiting lists. There is a great hospital in my constituency, Bantry General Hospital, and when it was being properly funded it took the pressure off the bigger hospitals in Cork. It helped with endoscopies, with rehabilitation and endocrinology and were it properly funded again, it would ease the lists in the bigger city.
