Any improvements that can be made in psychiatric hospitals would be welcomed. I speak for Sligo in this regard. There is an intention to build a new extension to Sligo General Hospital to cater for psychiatric patients. Senators on all sides of the House would agree that psychiatric hospitals were badly financed in the past. While the people working in those facilities did their best, they were very drab buildings and I do not think the conditions did any good for patients. I ask that psychiatric hospitals should be looked at in a more favourable light. They have been the poor relation of the health service over the years.
