Finally, in terms of people who were diagnosed with various conditions, and I specifically refer to eye conditions and sight loss because my office receives a considerable amount of queries in that particular area, there has been a pilot programme involving the role of eye clinic liaison officer, ECLO, that is run in partnership with the National Council for the Blind of Ireland in the Dublin hospitals. They are looking to roll that out to hospitals around the country. Has Ms Magahy any information on where we are with that because I understand the HSE has committed to funding these ECLO officers, basically, officers who give advice to people on step-down supports and services after they have been diagnosed with sight loss?
