Dr. John Farrell:

If there is one outcome we are seeking from this meeting, it is for people like the members to say that they have listened to people who are trying to provide primary care services on the ground and know for definite that there is a serious issue. We are looking for their support to push this forward because this has to happen. We need the support of this committee and for members to go back to whoever looks after these things and say that this is now urgent. Otherwise, we will not have a functioning primary care service or general practice service for our patients.
