Mr. Liam Woods:

We will do everything we can to get it opened in May or early June.

I can confirm to Senator Colm Burke that we will respond to writing. To clear up a slight misunderstanding regarding what he initially said, I had thought the suggestion was that the social care division had not been in dialogue, which surprised me. I take the comment about the task force and we will correspond with the Senator on it. In respect of the points made about sick leave and maternity leave, there is capacity to replace those on sick leave or maternity leave because the budget is in place for those staff. We face challenges in community care and hospitals. We have a relatively young workforce that is strongly feminised.
