I want to make a point about the vision, the plan and the management for University Hospital Galway as a centre of excellence. Clinical directors have said here that a plan for a new hospital is needed. The suggestion we have heard that old wards will be opened on a congested site shows a lack of vision, in my view, from the HSE and the Department with regard to the needs of the 800,000 people who live in the hospital's catchment area. This is just one example of where we need governance and management structures and groups that work and are effective.
