Okay but there are proposals relating to the elective centre. What is the difference between an elective hospital and an elective centre? Will the witnesses provide a list of procedures above what is provided in a minor injuries unit? The diagram indicates that selective day surgery plus minor see and treat, which is the chosen model for Galway, Cork and Dublin is one place above a minor injuries unit and three places below a full service elective hospital. There is a bit of confusion in terms of what that means or what will or will not take place.
