Terry Leyden: There is a proposal to close the Teach de hÍde located at the Sacred Heart Hospital, Roscommon.

He had a distinguished career and was a great...

Our colleagues, Senators Byrne and Mullen, put up a great fight and they deserve credit for working so hard to put their case to the people.
