I seek the adjournment of the Dáil under Standing Order 32 on a matter of national importance regarding the reply received here last night from the Minister of State at the Department of Education and Science, who was responding on behalf of the Minister for Health and Children, on the failure of the Government to clarify the future of the proposed €39 million development project for Ennis General Hospital. I ask the Taoiseach to clarify immediately whether funding for this project, which was promised by successive Governments, will be allocated, when the project will begin construction, and the Government's plans for the future of services at the accident and emergency department in this hospital.
