Ms Mary Day:

If I might add a final point, as the new national director in acute operations, which both Professor O'Connor and I are representing, we wish to assure the committee of our ongoing commitment to University Hospital Limerick, to CHO 3 and to the citizens. I have worked with Professor Cowan and the team in a different role over the years and I can assure members that there is a huge amount of innovation and ongoing hard work and there is complete competence in the management team delivering it.
