Ms Laura Magahy:

I will take the question on access to diagnostics. It is a really important piece.

A group that was set up under the national clinical programme for radiology is actively examining that. It is looking at working across traditional boundaries and promoting advanced practice radiographers. By 2022, we will have 70% more radiographers. They are in training at present. It is very important that they are in the pipeline, as it were, and will be ready to do it. A new workforce model is being developed to meet GP and patient needs, as well as new models of education and training. I am happy to supply details of that. It is the work of the HSE's national clinical programme for radiology. It has mapped all the different radiology infrastructure throughout the country. Again, that work was one of the deliverables in the action plan and it has been done. The issue is to get it up and running.
