I wish to raise the issue of the out-of-hours service for general practitioners in Tipperary. Caredoc, which covers the whole of the south of Tipperary, has only one general practitioner on duty between 11 p.m. and 8 a.m. In north Tipperary, which is covered by Shannondoc, there is only one general practitioner on duty between 10 p.m. and 8 a.m. Will the HSE consider increasing the resources for the service, particularly as having one doctor in the north of the county and one in the south is not nearly adequate to cover calls?
