In overall terms, though, do we need to look at this? It would need to be done now rather than when the hospital opens, because if we want to give the best to the staff and to retain them, then this is going to be a challenge. The rental costs in Dublin, Cork and all the other cities are a challenge. Is now not the time to have a careful plan on this? We have a two-year timeframe in which to look at this so we can ensure we hold on to the staff we have, who are very dedicated and committed as well.
