The Health Service Executive got more than €5m in car parking charges at its public hospitals last year.Some €5.1m was taken in by the HSE in car parking charges in its public hospitals in 2021, which is almost identical to the previous year.By far the highest was the €1.25m in Cork University Hospital.
That is followed by €657,000 in Galway University Hospital, and €468,000 at Waterford Regional Hospital."To abolish them entirely would result in people freeloading on hospital car parks in good sites in the Dublin area, and in Cork and Galway."And it be should be attached to patients, specifically individual patients.Aontú put forward a bill in the Dáil last month that would see the charges end for many people attending outpatient services.
Shocking. They shouldn't need to make profit from sick people or visitors of sick people parking.
More MSM fake news.
