Ahern set to deliver on radiotherapy treatment
While it is widely anticipated he will have positive news for public radiotherapy patients, allowing them to receive their treatment at the new Whitfield hospital, an election candidate in the region has called upon Mr Ahern to deliver University status for Waterford Institute of Technology (WIT).
Workers Party candidate Cllr John Halligan said the constituency visit is an ideal opportunity for the Taoiseach to outline where the Government stands on the provision of radiotherapy for all cancer patients from the southeast and on the designation of WIT as a regional university.
