Health Service: Statements.
I understand that the Hanly report, referred to by Senator O'Meara, looked at the mid-west, the area she represents, Limerick, Ennis and Nenagh, and three hospitals in Dublin. It is very difficult to accept that they are suddenly going to close every acute hospital in Ireland from a study of just two areas. That, to my mind, makes no sense whatsoever. I agree with Senator O'Meara that the Hanly, Brennan and Prospectus reports should be published, and we will then in a better position to deal with their proposals. Hopefully, we will be able to give our views on them.
