I confronted Minister Harris on this issue in the Dail recently. Amazingly, he admitted he knew next to nothing about it. I questioned why the review was taking place and if it was to reduce or withdraw services from the area, which would be unacceptable. I said I expected any review to increase the services given that the national ambulance service has a larger budget this year. Subsequently I spoke with Minister Harris privately and he said he believed that there would be no decrease in "there was no intention to reduces services in the Mid West".
