As Deputy Farrell said, we had nothing this time last year. Since then, we did very well in getting an extra ambulance, an additional emergency vehicle and 11 staff. A decision has been made on where the base will be located. What we are missing now is the building. The delivery of all the extra services we were promised was done in record time, between September and December last year. I remember the Minister of State, Deputy Rabbitte, promising to take action on this matter when we raised it a year ago. Now we are looking to the Minister of State, Deputy Feighan, to do something very simple. Will he make sure we get the ambulance base in Recess, Connemara gan tuilleadh moille?
