I would like to raise the issue of out-of-hours GP services. Tipperary is a very big county and, between 10 p.m. and 8 a.m., only two GPs are available for this service, one in Clonmel and one in Nenagh. Unfortunately, we are hearing of a greater number of examples where the service is not up to the level that would be reasonably expected by sick people throughout the county. Can I have a commitment from Government that additional resources would be put into this service in Tipperary?
