The Cathaoirleach asked several times about reports and how the decision was made without reports being done. Could the committee be provided with the minutes of the meetings where the closure of St. Brigid's was discussed, in particular the meeting in which the final decision was taken to close the hospital? I presume it was discussed at a few meetings within the HSE. There must be a copy of these minutes. If there are no reports, the committee is entitled to get a copy of the minutes. We will see the exact content of the discussion on the closure and the various opinions given at the meetings. Is that okay?
