That suggests to me that when the health service identifies an increased demand, it is too slow in responding, regardless of the service in question. I know of a person who worked in the health service in the United Kingdom. A sudden increase in demand was identified and within six months a new clinic had been opened. The person in question came back to Ireland to work and also saw an increase in demand, but it was ten years before a clinic was opened.
