I will make a suggestion. Ms Ryan touched on a really important point. Most people who would access any type of care would assume that the first step is to go to their GP and say they have an issue they need help with. Is the creation of a database that outlines who offers care the wrong way around? If we are going to look at people who object to providing basic care - I include hospitals in this and I would suggest before putting forward my next proposal that every hospital in receipt of public funds should be offering basic services - should the database not be on who is not providing the service?
