Something must be done about the problems in accident and emergency services. The Midland Health Board recruited three new consultants, one of whom is based in Mullingar. If people go to Mullingar, Carlow, Portlaoise or wherever, get boozed up to the gills, get involved in a rumpus and require accident and emergency services in Portlaoise, Tullamore, Mullingar or wherever, cause disruption and in some cases assault staff, not alone should they be physically hit but they should be hit where it hurts most of all, in the pocket.
