I will have to make some inquiries into the matter. As the Deputy will be aware, we have a new National Rehabilitation Hospital in Dún Laoghaire. It was built under the previous Government. I had the privilege to turn the sod on it as Minister for Health and see it open only a few years ago. It is a top class facility with all single rooms. It is a huge improvement on the one that was there before.

Staffing is a challenge across the country in the public and private sectors, in well-paid jobs and modestly paid jobs, and in big and small companies. Much of that is down to the fact we have full employment, among other issues. I do not know the exact detail of the staffing situation in the NRH in Dún Laoghaire, but I will make inquiries about it and revert to the Deputy.
