Sinn Fein rep Maria McCormack believes the current dispatch system has already cost lives.
The situation around the National Ambulance Service in Laois is "dangerous, unsustainable, and costing lives."
That's the warning from Laois Senator Maria McCormack.
The Sinn Fein rep is highlighting major problems facing frontline paramedics, who report being sent all over the country with no system to ensure coverage is maintained in their home counties.
Ms. McCormack believes the move to a single national dispatch centre model has left rural communities in danger.
She's highlighting the case of Lauren McEvoy and her late mother, who suffered a brain aneurysm at home in The Heath:
