Terry Leyden (Fianna Fail)

Despite a lack of support from members of the Health Board from my county, who voted against the compromise proposal, Roscommon was retained as an acute general hospital with surgery, medical and psychiatric services and we have built it up to a fantastic set up. It is a good hospital and works very well. It is very regrettable for me to see what is proposed for a hospital for which we fought so hard and for so long.
