My main point is that the problems should not be brushed under the carpet. Whatever positive effect the RCSI could have in the operation of the facility, within the limits and tolerance of what can be done, should be used to a positive effect so that what we operate is working hard to solve the problems that were very eloquently outlined and compared to the historical situation with Protestants and Roman Catholics in our hospitals. We cannot say it does not exist. In 2006, when we last visited Bahrain, Giovanni Trapattoni had not yet been appointed manager of the Irish soccer team. Maybe it is time to get back out there again. The NUI has external examiners out there, and that is very good, but maybe they could pay another visit.
