I ask Mr. Mulvany to give me an update on the big debate we have all been having on ICU beds. We all became experts in the preferred number of ICU beds for a population of our size and it was broadly accepted that we were nowhere near the level that would be required when the coronavirus pandemic struck. If we were to face another similar pandemic, would we have enough ICU beds in place?
