Mr. Robert Watt:

Will I come in and then maybe Mr. Reid will deal with the second part of the question?

First of all, to reassure the Senator and other members, and to add to what Mr. Reid has said, I am absolutely fully committed to this reform agenda and the implementation of Sláintecare. The reason I was happy to be asked to do this job and take on this role was to deliver the change because I believe that the Department of Health, with our colleagues in the HSE and with the Minister, Deputy Stephen Donnelly, and the Government, is making and will continue to make significant changes to bring about a system which can deliver better for citizens. That is my motivation. Nobody, along with Mr. Reid, should be under any illusions. I am fully committed to delivering this and feel that we are making progress and we will continue to do so.
