There are calls for increased Garda presence in hospitals, following reports of drug dealing in a number of Dublin wards. Dealers are supplying heroin, cocaine and amphetamines to addicts who are taken in as patients. In a statement, St James Hospital said it's taking the problem very seriously and is working closely with Gardai. Labour's health spokesperson Liz McManus says undercover operations would help tackle the problem.
