The Fianna Fail Representative called on the Health Minister to provide funding for a car park project.

"Can I ask you to bring forward to Minister Donnelly the need for a capital allocation to enable the hospital management there to make the provision for 85 new car parking spaces to ensure staff have access to car parking. They need it because they work long hours, anti-social hours. They need to be able to park their cars in close proximity to the hospital and also for the patients who come to get their treatment".
