Teastaíonn otharcharr i gConamara. D'ardaigh mé é seo trí bhliain ó shin. Tá chuile dhuine ar aon ghuth maidir leis seo. Tá go leor obair déanta ach tá sé ag tógáil go leor ama otharcharr a fháil do Chonamara. Impím ar an Tánaiste dul i dteagmháil le Feidhmeannacht na Seirbhíse Sláinte mar gheall air seo. The need for an ambulance base in Conamara has been raised many times and there has been a long-running campaign. Everybody is in agreement on that. I raised the matter here for the first time three years ago. Much work has been done but it is taking a lot of time. I ask the Tánaiste to directly contact the HSE to try and get the process speeded up because, as we know, it is so important for the safety of people in Conamara and, of course, ambulance bases save lives.
