Ambulance Service
Dail Éireann — 2024-06-13
============================================================

Duncan Smith (LAB), Dublin Fingal

What are the Minister's plans to develop a consultant-led helicopter emergency service that would bring lifesaving expertise to the scene of crashes and accidents? It was news to me that Ireland is an outlier among our European counterparts as regards this service. It is something we need to provide. I think the Taoiseach or the Minister has made positive comments on this matter. I would welcome an update.
