Anne Rabbitte (Galway East, Fianna Fail) | Oireachtas source

I thank the Deputies for raising this. We are fortunate that it is a Minister of State from Galway who is taking this question as I have a complete understanding of Connemara, and I have an understanding that when I leave the Bearna road to go out west, I am as close to Dublin as I am to some parts of Connemara. As to what I will do for the Deputies, the answer I got this evening was from the trauma and pre-hospital emergency care policy unit. I will organise a meeting with that team within the Department of Health, along with the members of the National Ambulance Service, within the next month. I invite all three colleagues, who are working closely together, representing their constituents on the ground, to a meeting. Perhaps we can move this agenda item forward.
