Forgive my naivety but I thought the Minister might actually answer the question that was submitted and put to him.

I accept there has been increased investment in Monaghan Hospital. It took an awful lot of pressure in order to get it, and it came from a very low base because of the disastrous decisions of previous Fianna Fáil and Fine Gael Governments to remove services. The decisions to remove services had a devastating impact on other hospitals, in particular Drogheda and Cavan hospitals. Could I ask the Minister again, how much additional funding for new services is going to be provided to Monaghan Hospital in 2024?
