The Health Minister has said she wants cancer patients in Donegal to receive treatment locally rather than having to fly to Dublin.

She told The Journal that her bigger question is why it is necessary for patients to travel to Dublin for treatment.

Campaigners from Donegal Cancer Flights and Services will meet the Minister for Transport, Darragh O’Brien, to push for the restoration of essential flights.

Speaking to Ocean FM News, Cllr Micheal Choilm Mac Giolla Easbuig says Donegal has been left behind for decades, and our people continue to pay the price for a lack of local services.
