Answers sought on ambulance issue
In the correspondence, the Chief Ambulance Officer explained that the SIPTU representative had spoken of a commitment made by the HSE that a 24-hour service would be provided in Killarney by January 2006.
The Ambulance Officer added in the correspondence that the undertaking could only be made if the funding and resources were available for such a development but that it had been made a priority for this year.
Killarney Mayor Tom Doherty, was in agreement. “Killarney is the only town in the Cork and Kerry region without a 24-hour service and it’s not good enough. If they don’t come to us, we’ll have to go to them,” the mayor added.
