439. Deputy John Halligan asked the Minister for Health if his attention has been drawn to the fact that the increased equipment noted in the Herity report was solely for an image intensifier and that there are three other components of the laboratory; furthermore, if his attention has been drawn to the fact that some €240,000 has been spent on the existing catheterisation laboratory recently to ensure this equipment is supportable; if his attention has been drawn to the fact that the existing laboratory is currently up to specification and fully operational for at least the next five years; his views on whether the quality of the existing laboratory is not the issue but rather the capacity of the existing laboratory and its ability to offer a clinically safe service in isolation is very much the concern of the clinicians in the south east; and if he will make a statement on the matter.
