I apologise for missing the presentation but I was trying to resolve a medical issue for someone. I asked the groups that presented earlier about the availability of people with the required qualifications and they stated adequate numbers were available to fill any vacancies or shortfall. My understanding from the HSE presentation is that the officials feel that is not the case. Can they clarify the position regarding the availability of the professionals we need on the front line?
