I am so happy I ensured dozens of lives were saved with the air ambulance. The endoscopy unit at the hospital was opened two weeks ago. Over 300 people are employed full time at the hospital. Senators do not need to take my word for it - they can call down to Roscommon and talk to the consultants and the management personnel there. They will say that the hospital is much safer, that people are much safer and that dozens of lives have been saved. I ask anybody who would challenge that to come down.
