Clinic waste, documents found in field

Gardaí and council staff in Wexford town are examining how confidential documents and other waste from the county clinic on Grogan’s Road, Wexford town, ended up strewn around a field where horses were grazing.

The South Eastern Health Board has also launched its own probe into how documents, surgical gloves, used nappies, septic wipes and commode covers ended up strewn across its own field next to the clinic.
