HSE tightlipped on €12m windfall

THE HSE has refused to comment on plans for a €12 million windfall its due to receive from the sale of a landbank in Clonmel.

With waiting lists for child psychology services currently running at two years in south Tipperary, calls have been made for the money to be ploughed straight into this health sector.

Plans are at an advanced stage by South Tipperary County Council to purchase a substantial parcel of land on the outskirts of Clonmel, with details of the deal revealed to councillors behind closed doors last week.
