Podcast: Evelyn Parsons

Over 200 people attended a public meeting in Ballinasloe last night amid massive concern over the downgrading of maternity services in Portiuncula University Hospital in the town.

It's after it was announced last month high-risk mothers can no longer have their babies in the hospital.

The meeting was chaired by Dr Kevin Connolly, a retired pediatrician from Portiuncula, while Cllr Dr Evelyn Parsons, an Independent councillor, also spoke in detail.
