Does Mr. O'Brien accept they are being forced to do this because they simply do not have the capacity in the public system? Maybe in the past this was due to recruitment problems, the embargo and so on. Whatever the reason, there was a quadrupling of agency spend at University Hospital Waterford. I am trying to understand if that is costing us more, as taxpayers.
