The report did not see the light of day. It was never published. I ask Mr. Mulvany to come back and tell me. I ask the Secretary General of the Department of Health why that report was not published, what progress is being made and can we move to a single model of providing care.

Can Mr. Mulvany come back with an answer to a further question on this matter. I have nothing against the model of GPs being stand-alone private entities if that is what people want. Has the HSE considered employing a cohort of salaried GPs at any point? If not, why is that the case? I ask the same question of the Department. I would appreciate it if they could include that in the answer as well for next week.
