Joint Oireachtas Committee on Health
Oversight of Sláintecare: Discussion
Mr. Robert Watt:
On the elective hospitals and capacity, we will share with the committee the detailed work that Professor Keane and his group did and facilitate any engagement the members would like to have with Professor Keane, either bilaterally or in this forum. I am very happy to set out their plans with regard to the elective hospitals.
I am happy to engage in whatever format the Deputy and the Chair think is appropriate about the rationale for the location and the proposed structure. Regarding the second question, I have not seen the story in the newspaper so I cannot really comment on it.
