604. To ask the Minister for Health if his attention has been drawn to the downgrading of health services on Arranmore island, for example the current community-registered nurse is not on the island full-time and there is no public health nurse, leading to people waiting longer for treatment and having to go to the mainland more often; his views on whether this is appropriate at a time when the population of the island is increasing; and if he will make a statement on the matter.

As this is a service matter, I have asked the Health Service Executive to respond to the Deputy directly, as soon as possible.
