On the same issue, the Taoiseach will be aware of the genuine consternation in the entire south east, not only in the Waterford constituency but also mine, that a man lost his life over the weekend in Waterford because of the lack of a cath lab facility. It was our understanding that, pending the conclusion of the second review, a second mobile lab would be in place by the first quarter of this year, a commitment that has not been fulfilled. I ask the Taoiseach to indicate when the second mobile cath lab will be in place and when the full review of cath lab facilities in the south east will be concluded in order that we can have permanent facilities on a 24/7 basis.
