My question is the same as that of Deputy Bacik. The INMO is holding its annual conference today. A survey by the organisation found 65% of nurses and midwives felt patient safety was at risk and conditions were not conducive to a safe workplace. Something important the Government can do is to implement the safe staffing framework. It should be implemented and underpinned by legislation. That would be conducive to a safe environment for healthcare professionals and also patients.
