To ask the Minister for Health if he will provide the list of 200 sites that were identified for proposed primary care centres in order of the priority determined by officials based on a scoring system based on deprivation levels, their assessment of service priorities in an area and an assessment of available accommodation [43621/12]

The list of 200 locations referred to in media reports represented the situation at a given point in time. However, the prioritisation exercise is a dynamic process, constantly evolving to take account of changing circumstances, including the feasibility of implementation. There are more than two hundred locations under consideration for progression and the list of locations requires further work and objective analysis by my Department and the HSE, particularly with regard to the feasibility of implementation. Accordingly, it is not proposed to publish the list at this time.
