Verona Murphy (IND), Wexford

In March of this year, the Taoiseach visited Wexford General Hospital after the disastrous fire that occurred there. At the same time, he promised that the 96-bed unit would be forthcoming. The people of Wexford are facing a winter of discontent because we are no further along with the 96-bed unit. I note that the Minister for Health is present, so could we have an update on when we will see the delivery of the 96-bed unit? We are going to face overcrowding. The hospital has faced considerable turmoil this year. The staff are worn out, and even constituents are worn out.
