North Leitrim councillors have unanimously agreed to call on Health Minister Simon Harris to ensure the primary care centre in Kinlough is kept open.
At a Manorhamilton Municipal District meeting of the council, Fianna Fail Councillor Justin Warnock also called for the Kinlough centre to be taken out of the Donegal HSE area and included as a standalone centre in Sligo/Leitrim.
In addition, he’s looking for an improvement in other services, including a full GP service in the area.
At present the GP service is only available for a couple of hours in the week which, Cllr Warnock, said is not adequate.
