Text

I thank the Member for giving way. I know full well that, in my constituency of Fermanagh and South Tyrone, services have been reconfigured and some services have moved to Craigavon. The Member talked about need and the fact that people have to travel. However, people rightly question why services at the South West Acute Hospital (SWAH), which is a wonderful facility on my doorstep, are being reconfigured to a hospital such as Craigavon, which has poor facilities — not poor service — that do not help aid people's recovery from some of the conditions they are suffering from.
