Micheál Martin (FF), Cork South-Central

First, the Deputy’s analysis is wrong, actually. We need a multidimensional approach to healthcare. The Deputy is falling into the old trap. It is about tertiary hospital capacity for him but actually it is not. That is an important part of it but it is about building up community care and primary care. I attended Ballincollig primary care centre two weeks ago. It is a fantastic multidisciplinary facility. It deals with eye diagnostics and treatments, mental health treatment, chronic illness and a whole range of disciplines which will prevent people in the first place -----
