Labour ‘disturbed’ at patients’ suffering

A DAMNING letter sent to Health Minister Mary Harney by a leading consultant paints a truly shocking picture of the suffering being endured by patients, the Labour Party said last night.

The letter outlines the state of cancer services in the South

Labour Party spokesperson Liz McManus described the letter, published in yesterday’s Irish Examiner, as one of the “most extraordinary and disturbing documents” on the health service to have emerged in recent years.
