With all due respect, I would like some latitude. As a result of this cap, the ambulance service will ferry people between hospitals instead of doing their normal work. Within Nenagh there are 75 beds so if a 76th person arrives, he must be ferried to Limerick. I got a phone call from an ambulance driver asking what will happen if the control room gets an emergency call while a person is being taken to Limerick.
