No Enda Kenny pledge on trolley crisis

Taoiseach Enda Kenny has refused to pledge to end the trolley crisis in our hospitals over the next five years, if his party is returned to government.

Nor would he pledge to fix the health system, a commitment made before previous elections.

But Mr Kenny said there could be more “progress” in improving public healthcare. He said Fine Gael had a long-term vision of universal healthcare to end the two-tier system.
