Special Report No. 83 of the Comptroller and Auditor General: Managing Elective Day Surgery

Dr. Tony O'Connell:
To provide a higher level comment, it has only been possible for us to deal with the €4 billion reduction in our funding and the loss of 15,000 staff over the last seven years in the face of increasing activity by becoming more efficient through the measures that Professor Keane outlined. That is a major driver for our move to day cases. There is no lack of incentive to move to day cases.
