I welcome our guests and thank them for their ongoing work and expertise in this area. Recently, I became one of those who experienced the need for emergency treatment in hospital. It was a Dublin hospital in which Trinity College has a teaching role. Any compliment that can be given is well warranted.

To go back to the business at hand, Dr. Burke mentioned holding on to measures effective during Covid. Which of the measures have not been taken on board? I was of the same opinion as Dr. Burke and made a suggestion in this regard at a meeting of this committee. It would be easy enough to see how the measures effective during Covid worked in the general health service. Maybe Dr. Burke will expand further on that.
