Edenderry's Fergus McDonnell says he's been told the HSE owes Offaly Hospice Committee over €300k.
A Midlands Hospice Committee is owed over €300,000 by the HSE, according to an Offaly Councillor.
Edenderry rep Fergus McDonnell says senior management in the Health Service promised to repay Offaly Hospice Committee €312,000 spent developing a proposal to construct a hospice for Offaly on the grounds of Tullamore Hospital.
Arden Lane will now be the location of a pallative care facility for the entire midlands region.
The Independent councillor says the local authority is in touch with the HSE and a meeting on the issue scheduled for Friday has been deferred.
He says the committee should have been given more respect:
