Galway Bay fm newsroom - A site has been selected for the construction of a long-awaited new health centre on Inishbofin.
Galway West Fianna Fail TD Éamon Ó Cuiv says the site is located adjacent to Inishbofin airstrip and is owned by the state.
A site had previously been identified - but numerous planning setbacks saw the project scrapped and sent back to the drawing board.
The current centre, located in a pre-fab, has been widely slammed as sub-standard and not fit for purpose.
A recent meeting brought together island representatives, the Department of the Gaeltacht and the HSE to discuss the proposed new centre.
