Micheál Martin (FF), Cork South-Central

I am sure the Deputy will welcome the additional beds in the orthopaedic service, a very significant investment in the north side of Cork by the Government and it will make a very significant difference there. As I said to the Deputy last week, I introduced SouthDoc and it is a vital service. It is not just about opening the doors, as the Deputy knows. It involves personnel and ensuring there is back-up in capacity. The HSE is working on that and I will engage with it again to see where we are in this regard.
