Catherine Connolly (Galway West, Independent) | Oireachtas source

I welcome the news of a new elective hospital yesterday. I hope it is the start and part of the overall new hospital that is needed but in due course, we might get clarification on that. My question is one of five seeking clarification on the situation in Galway and concerns a cancer care centre. I wish to know precisely what the position is with that. I ask this question in the context that there were 51 people on trolleys yesterday in Galway, most of whom were in the accident and emergency department, and in the context of the options appraisal.
