910. To ask the Minister for Health if his attention has been drawn to the number of patients regularly on trolleys in South Tipperary General Hospital; his views on whether these continued and relentlessly high numbers are fair or acceptable; the action he will take to tackle this issue as a matter of priority by immediately sanctioning emergency funding to allow for the opening of 12 step-down beds in Cashel hospital to alleviate the trolley situation; and if he will make a statement on the matter.

In relation to the issues raised by the Deputy, as these are service matters, I have asked the Health Service Executive to respond to him directly.
