I want to draw the witnesses' attention again to part of the winter plan, regarding discharge from University Hospital Galway to the regional hospitals. There have been issues in Clifden which they may be familiar with. That relates to staffing and to the lack of available staff and is something being faced across the more remote areas of public clinics and private clinics. There will be statements in the Seanad today on private nursing homes. Is there more that can be done on international recruitment for nursing and care staff for public homes, particularly the regional homes?
