Questions are being asked about plans to reduce winter hospital overcrowding in Limerick in the wake of delays to a review of emergency services.
There were 86 people on trolleys at University Hospital Limerick (UHL) and five in Ennis on Tuesday, according to the Irish Nurses and Midwives Organisation. Separate HSE data showed five people waiting longer than 24 hours for a bed.
