I thank the representatives of the HSE for their assistance to the committee on the current pressures in emergency departments in public hospitals which is justifiably of huge concern to citizens and communities. On behalf of the committee I again thank staff, not only those in emergency departments but all those in hospitals and other medical settings, for the additional effort they have put in during this crisis. I wish them and their families well.

The committee hopes to see a continuing improvement in the situation in this regard and we will continue to keep the matter under close scrutiny.
