939. To ask the Minister for Health the reason there is no reference to the promised 96-bed unit for University Hospital Limerick in the capital infrastructure section of the HSE 2018 national service plan; when the design team will be appointed; when it is anticipated that the project will go to tender; when it is expected that a capital allocation will be made to allow for construction to commence; and if he will make a statement on the matter.

Health capital funding was outlined in the recently published Public Service Estimates for 2018 and the HSE is currently developing its Capital Plan for 2018 - 2021.

My Department has asked the HSE to reply directly to the Deputy in respect of the proposed 96-bed extension at University Hospital Limerick.
