Hospital Services
Seanad Éireann — 2023-06-13
============================================================

Tim Lombard (FG), Agricultural Panel

I thank the Minister of State for his really comprehensive response. He has just clarified the position on the scaremongering. He said it is expected that the project will be completed in June 2024. That is a really significant statement. I acknowledge it because it is all about delivering multimillion-euro projects that will benefit rural Ireland and improve the quality of life there. The continual barraging of Bantry General Hospital by politicians for nothing more than their own political gain has to be called out. What Deputy Michael Collins has been at over the past few weeks has to be called out as inappropriate-----
