Politicians get an earful at care centre opening

The Athenry Primary Care Centre was described by the Tánaiste as a world- class facility, but one of the partner GPs operating from the centre told Mr Gilmore that the Government had not provided the funding necessary to ensure it operated properly.
After being given a tour of the facility — part of the HSE’s national strategy to provide purpose-built centres to deliver primary care services to communities — Mr Gilmore addressed an invited attendance and paid tribute to all involved in making it a reality.
