Ms Laura Casey:

The inspection process is really important. As we discussed earlier, the regulator can become aware of issues through a number of sources. The other point I would make is that the resources within HIQA, and in particular within the inspectorate, have been increased over the past few years. The number of staff has grown from 22 to 35. There has been quite a substantial increase in the resource available to the chief inspector for inspections across the sector. That will help with the level of oversight that HIQA can bring.
