A renewed call has been made for the A&E in Ennis to be re-opened in light of the overcrowding crisis at the region's main hospital.
It comes as the number of people left waiting for beds at University Hospital Limerick this morning has matched an all-time high of 66 – twenty more than any other hospital in the country.
The UL Hospitals Group has said in the past, that there aren't enough resources availble to provide a fully operational ED in the county town, but Councillor Clare Colleran Molloy says this latest crisis is evidence that reconfiguration hasn't worked.
