By Mr Berry, from 1,215 residents, requesting that, in relation to the Kippax Health Centre, the Assembly ensure that it is not sold and that the medical, dental and pathology and all other government-provided ancillary services are retained.

The terms of this petition will be recorded in Hansard and a copy referred to the appropriate Minister.
