When will the design stage finish? We were told recently that funding depends on the design stage. When did the issues with the suitability of the site first emerge? Will reports that back up the HSE's decision that the St. Patrick's site is too small be provided? Do they even exist? How much has been spent on the preliminary stages of St. Patrick's to date? How far along are negotiations on the greenfield site? Can any indication be given to us how close to the town the greenfield site is? Will the Minister of State give a commitment that other services such as the assessment unit and rehabilitation services are not lost in a couple of months' time?
