I worry that when one-off meetings are held and organisations like those present today appear before the committee, we do not hear about it again for another 12 months. I suggest we set up a structure in the same way that we have done with local authorities, which has been extremely helpful in local communities. Likewise, with such a structure there would not necessarily need to be a meeting once every month but at least once every two or three months. The representatives of the workers, whether they are doctors, care assistants, porters or nursing staff, would sit down with the HSE management with Garda representatives also being present.
