Ms Kate Killeen White:

When St. Brigid's Hospital was decanted, for want of a better word, for Covid reasons, we were operating in a vacuum. Covid hit and, as the months progressed, it became obvious that we could not deliver safe services in St. Brigid's Hospital in line with infection prevention and control. We were not confident that we could do that and it would have been wrong to admit patients into St. Brigid's Hospital when we were operating in that space.
