The sum requested in the letter I got from the Department of Health to deal with the issue of discharges was €25 million. If the sum were €100 million and €25 million were allocated, does the Deputy believe there would be a crisis in the first month? If the HSE were asking for €100 million for a year and €25 million were allocated, does the Deputy not believe it would get over the first month, at least, with a quarter of the allocation?
