751. To ask the Minister for Health the reason a policy (details supplied) has been in place for Ennis and Nenagh since 17 August 2023 to protect the rapid response vehicle (RRV) and ensure where an ambulance personnel is not at work, that the advanced paramedic is not taken off the RRV and this policy is not in place in Roscommon, which is also without an emergency unit, as Ennis and Nenagh are; the reason Roscommon is being treated differently; and if this policy will be implemented to ensure protection of the same vital RRV in Roscommon, just as important as Ennis and Nenagh.

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