Ruairí Ó Murchú (SF), Louth

My question relates to testing centres. We also have a difficulty with the numbers in County Louth at present, specifically at the north end of the county. We are talking about the test centre being moved from Dundalk to Ardee. Deputy Munster has mentioned on many occasions that there is no test centre in Drogheda. We are talking about two large urban setting and chasing down this virus. We need to look at rapid testing and other matters but we need to ensure there are test centres in the right places. There is a difficulty for people in terms of cars. We have a difficulty with ambulance services anyway and we do not want to put them under any more strain.
