Ms Yvonne O'Neill:

To add to what Ms O'Connor said, the discussion is about how the overall GP provision is modelled and where the out-of-hours service starts and stops. It absolutely is about the utilisation of the available resource, whether that is the GPs who are currently in practice and-or other GPs who are not currently in practice but are providing other, out-of-hours services. To be fair, discussions are under way directly with the Irish College of General Practitioners around how best we can model the service based on the resources we have and the resources we are seeing coming through.
