A person from Cork suggested the provision of such services in Galway would encroach on Cork's catchment area and this indicates catchment area is deemed of greater importance in the health service than the provision of facilities to deserving people. The report should be published and a debate held on it immediately. We have a two-tier service, best described as "the west versus the rest". It is time Senators stood up and were counted. I ask the Leader to arrange an immediate debate on the issue.
