Rash promises were made prior to the election about the introduction of services and the retention of small hospitals and people are angry because these promises have not been fulfilled. For example, a number of Senators referred to the improvement in cancer services in the west. They should speak to the oncologist who contacted me recently about the promised radiotherapy unit for the region. The unit will not be provided for several years, even though it was promised almost immediately. A radiotherapy unit was also promised in Waterford, although I do not know about the justification for locating it there.
