Dr. Tony Holohan:

That is also in drafting as things stand. It is a longer process so we expect this to be drafted and enforced before that. From our point of view that is the logical step. We are moving in the direction of a full licensing system so the step of extending the existing powers to bring in more private providers - and I will come back to the Deputy's question on that - is a step along the way to ultimately having a fully licensed arrangement where, at least from the licensing point of view, it will not matter if the provider is in the ownership of the State or in the ownership of some other organisation in terms of the standards that have to apply and the protections for the patients using those services.
