For example, there is talk that the emergency department in Our Lady's Hospital in Navan will eventually be moved to Our Lady of Lourdes Hospital in Drogheda. That is fairly loose talk around the place and I am quite sure it is policy behind the scenes but we will find that out eventually. It is just the location of Navan itself. It is in County Meath and is nearer the RCSI group. It is certainly nearer the Dublin Midlands hospital group. When the boundaries were being drawn and the hospital groups put together, it looks like a bit of an outlier in the context of the rest of the group. Equally, we know that this group was formed because of resistance from hospitals in Wexford and Kilkenny because it was originally meant to involve the south. That is not Ms Day's concern because she is the CEO of this new grouping. The reason I am asking these questions is because this is meant to be about a strategy for the next ten years.
