Text
Minister, following the unplanned collapse of emergency services at the South West Acute Hospital (SWAH) in Enniskillen, there were several inadequate — indeed, shambolic — consultations. So inadequate were they that your predecessor had to pause the move, and finally it was withdrawn. What steps will you take to ensure that there is genuine and meaningful consultation with communities about the health services that they require?
