Dr. Máire Milner:

I want to make a comment about the development of networks around the country. It has been proposed that hospitals would work with a larger centre. In our own instance, the Rotunda Hospital would work with Cavan General Hospital and Our Lady of Lourdes Hospital, Drogheda. In fact, this works very well. Quite a lot of service development is currently ongoing. A huge amount of support and back-up is available from regional centres. This is taking place and being rolled out around the country. This helps greatly as a means of support.
