I am aware of the proposal by a private consortium to establish an air ambulance service initially in the Munster area. However it is a matter for the Health Service Executive to consider the proposal in the context of its responsibility for the provision of public ambulance services. I understand that the group which has put forward the proposal is in communication with the HSE in the matter.
