Earlier this year I met with staff of St. Brigid’s, along with HSE personnel, to explain in detail the rationale for the repurposing of the St. Brigid’s facility. I have also met with the HSE recently and on 4 June I met with representatives of the Carrick-on-Suir Municipal District to clarify the agreed plans for the future of the facility. I have no plans to have further meetings at present, however I trust the Deputy will understand the practical restraints on my diary at the moment.
